“Jesus asked us to love one another as he loved us (see John 13:34 ). Is that possible? Can our love for others really approach divine love? Yes it can! The pure love of Christ is granted to all who seek and qualify for it (see Moroni 7:48). Such love includes service and requires obedience.
Compliance with divine law requires faith—the pivotal point of mortality’s testing and trials. At the same time, faith proves our love for God. The more committed we become to patterning our lives after His, the purer and more divine our love becomes.”
-Russell M. Nelson, “Divine Love,” Ensign, February 2003
