Hopefully this makes sense.
Jesus commands us to love one another. When I am sitting down and watching a TV show for example, I am not loving others but really taking time out for myself only. That is, doing something that satisfies only the self.
So would that not mean that we are constantly sinning? But then what standard should one aim for? Is God ok with those frequent moments when we choose self (like example above) rather than serving someone or loving someone? Or is God not ok with that and ideally wants us to be serving and loving all of the time which, imo, is unrealistic.
I'm just trying to reconcile this thought.. thanks!
