"No matter what we do, unless we do it in the
love of
God, it profits us nothing. God wants our love, He will be
satisfied with nothing else…The love of our hearts is something unique,
something no one else can give Him...It is Christ, whom we serve or injure in
the person of our neighbor…Charity does not compel us to like people but to
love them. And love is an act of the will wishing one well…The love of
God, then, and the love of our neighbor are one and the same virtue."
