The Key to Loving Others

When Jesus was asked about the greatest commandment in the Law, He responded with two: Love God and love your neighbor. The first of those is easy. Most people who call themselves Christians have little problem loving God (I hope). But loving others? That might be a little more difficult at times. Fortunately, Jesus qualifies His statement. He says to love others "as yourself." The statement is clear then - we can't love others until we love ourselves. It's not a sinful form of self-idolization, but a respect for who you are because God made you.
