Sure don't want to trust God, because you don't believe that He could blow out a match. It would seem that you serve a God that YOU need to help? A God that you must help across the street or else He will get plowed down by a truck. Sadly superheroes like yourself usually relieve themselves in their pajamas with a house invasion. Dennis Rader the BTK strangler entered a home was able to murder the entire family. While you may see yourself as being capably able to hysterically frantically oppose your attackers, envision yourself brandishing a firearm against your enemies, or doing some Wax on Wax off Karate Kid mojo on the serial killers who just entered you abode. The frightening truth is, without God you are spitting in the wind. I have seen so many miserably sad cases of people who met their demise at the hands of vicious killers.

But that wouldn't happen to you DB, you would just throw your mighty red, white, and blue shield at them.

But when you stop believing God will intervene, He usually answers that with not disappointing you. But His mercy endures for ever so He will pull the attackers off you, and maybe even give you a clean set of underwear.

You would defend the safety of your wife and daughters. You would do it every time. Bottom line---your uber pacifism will take a back seat to protecting your family. You would do it every day and twice on Sunday.
