Often times in my Christian life I have felt that the extent of my life in Christ is nothing but a "transactional relationship" where I mentally adhere to his saving me and I "give" him my life and he gives me life.
Still other times, like as of late, I feel that I have more of an "Interactive" faith. That is to say, as Im spending much more time in prayer and contemplation in Scripture, and seeking to "listen" to the Spirit, etc. I am really blessed as my being in Christ seems now beyond the transactional relationship, but is now much more interactive. By Interactive Im not sure how to explain it, maybe just as simple as saying I "feel" and have a sense of the love and direction and the reality of God in my day to day life (and not only in the history of mankind from 2000 years ago).
Does this resound with any of you saints?
