Simplified Meaning:
Being truly good revolves around having a deep love for God. Imagine a person who does many kind things, like helping the poor or being honest, but they do it just to look good. Their actions don’t come from the heart. Now consider someone who genuinely loves God. Their love inspires them to be kind and honest because they want to please God and do what feels right, not just for praise. This genuine love is what makes their actions truly virtuous. When we act out of love for God, our goodness is deeply rooted and sincere. To live like this, one can focus on building a strong, heartfelt connection with God, letting that love guide all their actions.
