"You want me to tell you why God is to be loved and how much. I
answer, the reason for loving God is God Himself; and the measure
of love due to Him is immeasurable love. . . ."What is love? In his
text On Loving God, Bernard surveys the four types of love that
Christians experience as they grow in their relationship with God:
loving one's self, selfish love, loving God as God, and loving
one's self in God. Bernard reminds us that not only did God give us
life, but He gave us Himself. For indeed, "God deserves to be loved
very much, yea, boundlessly, because He loved us first, He infinite
and we nothing, loved us, miserable sinners, with a love so great
and so free." Bernard reminds us that we are indebted to God for
his love and His sacrifice. Not only should we love God because it
is what He deserves, but also because loving God does not go
without reward. Loving God is to our advantage. The Lord rewards
those who love Him with the blessed state of the heavenly
Fatherland, where sorrow and sadness cannot enter. St. Bernard's
medieval prose is poetic and full of clever imagery. His work is as
beautiful as it is knowledgeable.
