How intimate and personal is your relationship with Jesus? To some degree this can be determined by how often you sense His presence in your life.

Minute - every waking minute.
Hourly - frequently during the day.
Daily - sometime during each day.
Weekly - perhaps associated with religious services.
Monthly - occasionally through the year.
Yearly - on occasions like Christmas, Easter or the anniversary of a loved one's death.
Seldom - at crisis such as death in family or financial reversal.
 
"Minute - every waking minute." is what I'd like to achieve. But as for that I can't say lest I say low too humbly, or higher too self-righteously. All I can say is that the grace of Christ is self-evident, and we all can always do better.

Amen! Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. John17:3 NIV
‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’ Jeremiah 33:3 NIV
...that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. John17:21 NIV
As Paul says in Colossians chapter 1:26-27, "...Christ in you the hope of Glory."

I think what you're asking is how often do we sense his presence in our lives in the form of his comfort and assurance, to which I would say 'Hourly - frequently during the day'.

Growing up into the Lord has meant growing out and away from the comforts of this life. Not completely. We still need the literal comforts and assurances of this life. And God surely gives comfort and assurance through those things. But more and more as I've grown up I find that to be truly satisfied and at peace I have to have God's comforting presence. So in these last few years I seek it much more often, and more often in preference to the comforts of this life.

Do you trust God 100% all of the time or less than a 100%? Or are you confused?
 
hourly I would say but I just call him God when Im talking to him....for me its like one long roadtrip Im on with God we are in the car together not constantly talking or rocking out to whatever is on the radio but we are there together and we are comfortable together and when one of us speaks to the other the conversation picks up so naturally just like we have been married for years its awesome I love living my life with him
 
I would have to say hourly as it's through out the day even if I do not feel him close to me at any particular moment I know he is always there.
