let love be your motive

God notes the love the that impels the action and not the number of works done. [He does much who loves much.] We inquire about how much a man might have accomplished in life but never seek the motives that led him to act, asking whether he is poor in spirit, meek and patient, or how devout he is. Grace views his in...ward reality, while nature looks at the outside, but Grace is never deceived.
