Power to Love
Agape love is the power to love the unlovable. It is the power to love
people we do not like. Jesus commands us to love our enemies in order to
be like God. We are not told to love in order to win our enemies or to
get results, but that we may be children of God, who sends the rain on
the just and the unjust, who looks after both the good and the evil. The
predominant characteristic of this agape love is that, no matter what a
person is like, God seeks nothing but his or her highest good.
