      Really both. However, he discusses that one can only truly trust 100% in Hashem since even if a person loves you unconditionally and would do anything for you, some things are out of his or her control, which is not true by Hashem. You can trust Him 100% and if you do, you will have “tranquility of the soul” which is the essence of emuna.
