-** My own steps ...**
+** Modern Life ...**
+Christian life is very modern life. Today we talk about well-being, about looking after your body carefully.
+Here, the goal is even deeper. There is some value in training your body, but there is universal value in
+being godly. Do we understand what it means to be godly, to live in similarity to how God is, to live in a
+way which follows him, which fits to him?
+Christian faith is about the living God. It is not about some idea or ideal. It is about a living being,
+who is the creator of all that is. God is spirit, he is all-powerful, he is full of mercy, he is holy, he
+is just, he is love himself. We talk about someone amazing and fantastic, about someone who is far
+beyond our usual common or daily experiences.
+Ask God to come into your life. There is nothing less to ask. There is nothing more to ask. He makes our
+life complete - the bible calls it peace, since we have reached the ultimate goal. All other goals come
+from him and lead to him, when they are good.
