Trust is the result of experience. I trust, for example, that there will be solid ground beneath my feet when I step outside. Faith is a commitment to the unknown or unknowable. For example, I have faith that the people of this nation will not completely succumb to the lies and false promises of Marxism.

Too often people have no concept of what faith really means, as some of the comments here illustrate. While today people understand what trust is. Also, the concept that faith is higher than trust and is spiritual is not true. God never expects us to have “blind” faith. He always gives us something to base our faith on.
I say use trust because both have the same meaning and today people understand trust.
