Love Your Enemies

So why is it hard to love our enemies if we believe we are all sinners?

We are commanded to love our enemies not only because we are given love and therefore are in a position to give, but also because we all are created in his image and share the fallen nature of man.  Would it be hard to love one of our own? To most people, that is the most natural thing to do and it is something we should do.  

To say we as Christians, love our enemies, does not make us morally superior.  When we truly know, cognitively and emotionally, that we are NOT morally superior, loving our enemies will become as natural as breathing.
