living trust

I am planning on marrying a widower of 1 1/2 years. Since he owns some valuable land, it has been important to me that he set up a living trust so his children are secure about my intentions. His only form of assets (other than Social security) is in land. I am 47 and he is 60. I am confused aout how to ensure that I am not thrown out into the cold if he should pass before me. In addition, we live on his ranch, where I will be working and helping him over the years. At this time, the trust is written that everything goes to his daughters (30 and 40). I want them to feel secure about this because I don't want anyting to cloud my relationship with them at this early stage. However, I started getting scared that if he died (God Forbid) and I was older they would come and just ask me to leave our home, etc and I would have no means of support or anywhere to live. How can we figure something out that is fair and appropriate...while avoiding looking like a golddigger? Confused and scared.
