I think you are all right "in Christ". Each of us has a relationship where Christ is in us and we are blessed to feel Him in all that we do and say. ...and like one person said, when we step out of Christ and sin, I feel we miss the blessing. God doesn't take it away, we just merely miss it. We only have to step back in. He never left. The blessing never left. Trust that God knows all. We think we know, but I have learned that God knows. He knows His son, and He is in us. Look at your child. Are they doing the best they can in school? Are they telling you the truth everytime? Are they always doing what you taught them? Have you ever stopped loving them? God's love is so much more than the love you have for your children. I am very thankful for being "in Christ", being adopted by God through Him. It strenghtens me in allt hat I do and say. I may not get it right everytime, but God loves me. What a strong blessing.
