"We are to love God for Himself, because of a twofold reason; nothing is more reasonable, nothing is more profitable." On Loving God is first a touching description of God's love for us as unmistakenly demonstrated in the death of His Son.

As St. Bernard writes, "They love all the more because they know themselves to be loved so exceedingly."
