Loving like Jesus did is a challenge that we will face every day we live, I believe, as we grow more and more like Him. Indeed, no wonder folks rejected Jesus teaching, and why the young man turned away sorrowful at the further teaching of Jesus to sell all and follow Him. Following Jesus will cause us to let go of things that we think are most important to us.
