if Christ died for ALL sin, why is there still so much sin...

My husband is a seminary student and at various times he asks me what I think about certain topics that he is or will be discussing. Yesterday, he was pondering Jesus' giving his life to attone for our sins. I've been asking the Lord to reveal to me what it is He wants me to teach the 8th grade girls this year. I know He wants them to know He loves them. That's so clear. I keep going back to a song that spoke volumes to me when I first heard it. It's by Lifehouse and here are the lyrics:

Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
Closer where I started
Chasing after you

I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held on to
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you

Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely incomplete
I'll take your invitation
You take all of me

Now.. I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held on to
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you

I'm livin for the only thing I know
I'm running here and not quite sure where to go
And I don't know that I'm to be here too
Just hanging by a moment here with you

There's nothing left to lose
Nothing left to find
There is nothing in the world that can change my mind
There is nothing else
There is nothing else..

Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
Closer where i Started
Chasing after you

I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all i've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you

I'm livin for the only thing i know
I'm running here and not quite sure where to go
And I don't know that I'm to be here too
Just hanging by a moment here with you

Just hanging by a moment
Hanging by a moment..
Hanging by a moment...
Hanging by a moment here with you..
