How are you? How is life?

 

 Although both of the questions are very simple but deep like ocean.  When one reflects on the life of a person and how one is, it becomes immediately apparent that this can be done in two very different ways.  One way is to look upon the person as a particular organism with a spatiotemporal history of its own; there the identity question is approached from the outside, so to speak, and differs not at all from questions about the identity of material objects through time.  Simply to say that life is a Person is quite easy, but it takes time for us to get into the experiences of the circumstances that one face. A tree has life, but this life has no personality, no will, no intention, and no desire. But the life which we have received of the Lord Jesus is not a mere life; it is a Person! It is a Person with a divine and a human personality.
