This supposes the activity of love which is quick to discern in the fear of the Lord and in the bowels of Christ that which might tarnish His glory, on the one hand, and, on the other, whatever would contribute to the exaltation of His name in His saints and testimony.
Where God's presence is realized, there is no straitness in the affections, but love goes out energetically to Him and in communion with Him concerning all the saints. It is the service of love before Him who is love. [12]
