THE LAW OF LOVE

CHRIST'S is the law of love: and by that standard what is without love is without law. It therefore follows that "though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profiteth me nothing" (1 Corinthians 13:3). But the man who makes God's will his own, will do the works as though it were by nature: he will not try to keep accounts with God; he will not count that he has done this and that; his right hand will scarcely know what his left hand does. He will have become an instrument through which God's will is fulfilled because through love his own will is absorbed in God's.
