Trust comes before knowledge

In the Garden we chose knowledge over trust. We live in a knowledge based world view. 'Knowledge will take care of it'
We want clarity over trust.
We want to know before we trust but the only way we will get to know is if we trust first.

God tells Moses that he will know that He has been with Moses when his promises come true. Then he can look back and know. At the front end it is trust and his word.

Is it more important to be right (assert my rightness) or trust God? I ask myself.
