So to love God more means to love Him more freely by constantly choosing. And leave it to God to make sure that our love for Him is free, in no way coerced or merely habitual, to keep us awake in our loving Him, to make free choices in our love. We love God more by loving Him more sacrificingly, by giving creatures up. This is one of the frequent methods that God has for getting more love out of us. He puts all kinds of wonderful creatures into our lives.
Some people seem never to learn it.
God puts wonderful persons, places and things into their lives. Well, now give it back to me. But, Lord, you gave it to me. I said give it back to me. Love God more sacrificingly, where sacrifice is the surrender of something we love to God whom we love more.
