In 1 John 3:2-3 the apostle John writes, “Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.”
There is way more of me that has yet to love God than what is loving Him, and there is way more of me yet to love others than what loves them. The marshaling of all of me in the interests of love is a long, winding road ahead that disappears over a distant horizon. Truly, all will be love only when He appears for then, and only then, “we shall be like Him, for we will see Him as He is.”
In the words of a poem by Christina Rossetti:
Does the road wind up-hill all the way?
Yes, to the very end.
Will the day’s journey take the whole long day?
From morn to night, my friend.
