130 Life, XXI | this light to me, whose love is so cold, and whose true
131 Life, XXI | in whom the fire of the love of God has grown so strong?
132 Life, XXI | the greater the growth of love and humility in the soul,

148 Life, XXIV | me on by the way of the love of God; he left me free,
149 Life, XXIV | I did so myself, out of love. I continued thus nearly
150 Life, XXIV | I began with a renewed love of the most Sacred Humanity;
151 Life, XXIV | comfort in, nor any particular love for, any persons whatever
152 Life, XXIV | those who, as I believe, love God, and who strive to serve
153 Life, XXV | matter to God with great love and earnestness may think
154 Life, XXV | words of reproof, and die of love if words of love. They are
155 Life, XXV | die of love if words of love. They are also, as I have
156 Life, XXV | the creed; which in its love of the faith, infused of
157 Life, XXV | faithfulness to those who love Thee! All things fail; but
158 Life, XXV | never failest! They who love Thee, oh, how little they
159 Life, XXV | occupied with any other love than Thine! It seems as
160 Life, XXV | didst subject those who love Thee to a severe trial:
161 Life, XXV | trial, the depths of Thy love. O my God, oh, that I had
162 Life, XXV | He strengthens our faith, love grows. So it is, in truth;
163 Life, XXV | our own enemies when we love and seek ./. what we ought
164 Life, XXV | great pity. But if, for the love of God, we hated all this,
165 Life, XXVI | God of a truth; for the love of those souls who have
166 Life, XXVI | from its true rest; and so love is made most manifest, and,
167 Life, XXVII | spiritual impressions of great love and faith of which we are
168 Life, XXVII | it utterly, and make it love nothing but Him who, without
169 Life, XXVII | with so much affection and love. Some of the graces He bestows
170 Life, XXVII | other means, to express the love there is between them both.
171 Life, XXVII | of sound sense, if they love each other much, can even,
172 Life, XXVII | the impetuosities of the love of God, of which I was once
173 Life, XXVIII | it seems as if a living love of God, of the highest kind,
174 Life, XXVIII | fills all things with His love.~15. This vision is to be
175 Life, XXVIII | traces of pure and holy love: Satan very quickly betrays
176 Life, XXVIII | hand as pledges of a great love,—and if I were now rich,
177 Life, XXIX | be continual; for now my love grew, I made piteous complaints
178 Life, XXIX | the growth in me of the love of God so strong, that I
179 Life, XXIX | great impetuosities432 of love, though not so intolerable
180 Life, XXIX | yet constrain me with Thy love, with a death so sweet,
181 Life, XXIX | soothed by the caresses of love, which shall draw forth
182 Life, XXIX | which shall draw forth its love in a gentle way, and not,
183 Life, XXIX | by force of blows. This love should be inwardly under
184 Life, XXIX | soul hate itself for the love of our Lord, and willingly
185 Life, XXIX | did anything whereby this love should come to it, and that
186 Life, XXIX | come from that exceeding love which our Lord bears it.
187 Life, XXIX | that may be felt, for the love of God; but the first pain
188 Life, XXIX | all on fire with a great love of God. The pain was so
189 Life, XXIX | one. It is a caressing of love so sweet which now takes
190 Life, XXX | far away. So tepid is its love that, when it hears God
191 Life, XXX | except in desire and in love; for herein I see well that
192 Life, XXX | measure. I really think that I love Him; but my conduct, and
193 Life, XXX | those great impetuosities of love, spoken of before,458 in
194 Life, XXX | attain to this state; their love is ever active, thinking
195 Life, XXX | contain itself, because of the love it has: it is so saturated
196 Life, XXX | mihi aquam."460~25. This love is also like a great fire,
197 Life, XXX | The inward stirring of my love urges me to do something
198 Life, XXX | communicated this fire of His love in its fulness. It is a
199 Life, XXXI | them believe me: for the love of our Lord, let them give
200 Life, XXXII | manifest is it that Thou didst love me much more than I did
201 Life, XXXII | me much more than I did love Thee! How often, O Lord,
202 Life, XXXII | see one whom we specially love in great trouble or pain,
203 Life, XXXII | sin. Let us, then, for the love of God, avoid all occasions
204 Life, XXXIII | better than I; that I did not love the house, and that it would
205 Life, XXXIII | sake; for the growth of the love of God in my soul, which
206 Life, XXXIII | violent impetuosities of the love of God of which I have spoken
207 Life, XXXIII | desire to be consumed for the love of God, and by other affections
208 Life, XXXIV | what I am saying. It is love that speaks, and my soul
209 Life, XXXIV | between it and God. That love which I know His Majesty
210 Life, XXXIV | state of grace, because a love of God like mine, together
211 Life, XXXIV | spirit I felt what great love burned within him, and became
212 Life, XXXIV | a soul on fire with Thy love! How we ought to prize it,
213 Life, XXXIV | upon earth! He who has this love should follow after such
214 Life, XXXV | go about begging, for the love of God—to have no house
215 Life, XXXV | live in poverty for the love of God.~8. At this time,
216 Life, XXXV | many falls—if he does but love Thee, and not the things
217 Life, XXXVI | kindle more and more their love of the Bridegroom. Accordingly,
218 Life, XXXVI | your reverence, for the love of God, should you think
219 Life, XXXVII | in the beginning.~7. My love of, and trust in, our Lord,
220 Life, XXXVII | consider Thy humility, and the love Thou hast for such as I
221 Life, XXXVII | cannot make the fire of the love of God burn: it is a great
222 Life, XXXVII | to bear with it for the love of Thee, and be willing
223 Life, XXXVII | every one, and all for Thy love? how is it, then,—for
224 Life, XXXVII | compassion? How can that love Thou hast for me endure
225 Life, XXXVII | believe so—such is Thy love, that Thou wouldest not
226 Life, XXXVII | deserved. But now and then my love makes me foolish, so that
227 Life, XXXVIII | to be made; for they who love God in truth, and are utterly
228 Life, XXXVIII | when these impetuosities of love are upon me. Everything
229 Life, XXXVIII | progress in the highest love of God, together with a
230 Life, XXXVIII | and compassion itself? The love that is visible in His most
231 Life, XXXIX | to serve Him grow, and my love revive.~8. But what amazes
232 Life, XXXIX | the good resolutions and love,—and our Lord gives him
233 Life, XXXIX | them a little light and love. I speak of that brief interval
234 Life, XXXIX | the heights of their great love and courage,—without experience
235 Life, XXXIX | accompanied with a vehement love. I would rather have that
236 Life, XXXIX | thousand ducats. For the love of God, let us leave these
237 Life, XXXIX | further showing His great love for me, said to me very
238 Life, XXXIX | spring forth out of the true love of God; for though I might
239 Life, XXXIX | that I was to consider my love for Him, which was daily
240 Life, XL | daughter, they are few who love ./. Me in truth; for if
241 Life, XL | Knowest thou what it is to love Me in truth? It is to admit
242 Life, XL | other loves depend on this love, and all other grandeurs
243 Life, XL | me I must do this for His love, and bear it; my life was

247 Rel, I | least, that sorrow for, or love of, kindred and friends

251 Rel, II | that, yea, rather, their love seems to weary me in some
252 Rel, II | the true fervour of the love of God, will do more good
253 Rel, II | daily more and more in His love.~15. I think I could not

255 Rel, III | perception of the surpassing love of God for us, in that He
256 Rel, III | trials are the measure of His love. How can I show My love

258 Rel, V | to leave no trace of any love of self, or of any created
259 Rel, V | poverty or charity? But as love was the better, whatever
260 Rel, V | better, whatever kindled love in me, that I must not give
