A little boy once said, “If learning how to love is like learning how to spell, I don’t want to learn. It’s too hard and it takes too long.”

Perhaps that is why so many people fail to forgive, strike-out when trying to love the unlovely. While Christ may command us to love, they argue it is too much work, and for them, impossible. They find the whole Christian commandment to love a concept too big, and choke on it.

Love can indeed be work, or at least can be troublesome. That’s right, because love makes you care about other people. Keeps you awake in the middle of the night praying for them. Makes you think up ways to keep them happy - which takes time and energy. Yes, love is trouble and three cheers for the trouble it brings.

Mark Twain once observed about the music of Wagner that “It’s better than it sounds.” This is certainly true of Christian love. It sounds good, and when practiced on a regular basis, it is truly even better than it sounds.
