Love

“Love is of God.”
— John 4:7

“"Love to all the saints" is an element of the blessing spoken of by the apostle, and even as to intelligence — "able to comprehend with all saints"; because they are in Christ's heart, and if not in ours, He has not His place, and self has so far excluded Him.”

“Love, free from self, can and does think of all that concerns others and understands what will affect them.”
