As I've grown older, it's become easier. The reason is because I've been the Lord's enemy, and I see more and more of my sin - more and more of my depravity. The only reason I love the Lord is because He plucked me up off the ash heap of depraved humanity. I know that left to my own devices, I'd be right there with the worst of the worst.
One of the hardest struggles is to pray for our enemies.
