The Will to Love

One of the points made by Fr. Schryvers in The Gift of Oneself is that our will is always about love.

"The life of the will, its need, its irresistible tendency, is to love. If the love is regulated, the whole will is good, the entire man is good. If the love is not regulated, the whole will is perverse, the entire man is bad.This is what Fr. Schryvers in the extract above calls a “perverse” will."

If my answer is “because I love God”, then my will is going to be a holy will.
