Your life in Christ begins when you trust in Jesus Christ as your Lord. The Spirit of Christ lives in every believer. You experience love, joy and peace, as the fruit of the Holy Spirit within you. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace (Galatians 5:22).
Life in Christ does not mean you will have no problems nor trouble. However, your love, joy and peace is not controlled by outward circumstances. Through it all, you can live in peace knowing that the Spirit of Christ is within you through every circumstance.

The love of Christ is obvious through fellowship with other believers. The Christian life was never meant to live alone. We are members of the same body, that is the church, the body of Christ. There is love when we gather together with God's wonderful people.
When believers sin, we grieve the Holy Spirit. That results in a temporary loss of joy and peace. However, God has provided a way to restore us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). God cleanses us to restore our joy and peace.
