Loving Our Enemies

Love certainly is the most essential and powerful force of all. Thus it is true that true love knows no limit or boundary. This is why it is very inspiring and fascinating to perceive the truth that the essence of God is love. Yet, when we humans use the term "love", it is often misused and/or used ambiguously. One thing that is true for most everyone is that we are more likely to love those who love us than to love those who don't love us in return. However, Jesus insists that it is only in loving our enemies that we are to become children of God! This teaching of Jesus almost compels us to rethink what we normally mean by "to love" and "enemy."
