pushing love to the fullest

one of the things that i have been thinking about as of late deals with jesus telling we can do more then he did, and in the section before (john 13) jesus tells us that we are to love each other as he loved us. can we? yes, and using human limits is a cop-out. because we are told we can do it - we just need to do it.

when was the last time you tried to love the unloveable? here's a thing to try to do - this week, pick someone you "can't stand" and learn to love them - thake them to lunch, hang out with them, learn some personal information about them - invite them to your home. hard? sure, but why not?
