Though you have not seen Him, you love Him. Though you do not now see Him, you believe in Him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls (1 Peter 1:8-9).The marks of a true believer: love and joy. No, these are not the only marks, but they are two key marks.
How about you? Are you characterized by love for Christ and "joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory"? Or is it simply "the salvation of your souls" that makes you a Christian? I'd think that simply being saved would be insufficient. It's that love for Christ and joy inexpressible that I want to experience every day.
