If we don't do away with the things that keep our love from abounding, we cut ourselves off from God's goodness and lose out on His many blessings. We need to work on purifying our hearts, so that they become ever-expanding receptacles for the gifts of God. Consider the concept of “laziness" in regard to spiritual growth. Numerous texts in the Proverbs speak of the general undesirability of being a sluggard
The writer of Hebrews said, “We desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises”.
The church in Ephesus was praised for having been strong in their defence of the faith and tireless in their work for the Lord.
Nevertheless, Christ said, “I have this against you, that you have left your first love. Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works, or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lamp stand from its place; unless you repent”
Having previously loved and served the Lord so fervently, certain coldness had begun to restrict their relationship with Him. Unless they took decisive steps to correct this problem, it would destroy their fellowship with Christ.
God has made it possible, through Jesus Christ, for us to have a truly rich relationship with Him. But the richness of this relationship can't be enjoyed if our hearts are held back by indifference and inactivity. Loving God is a vigorous transaction indeed, and love's rewards come to those who are reaching forward.
And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,
filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God.

The world we live in is gradually killing our love for each other.we need to stick to Jesus all the time.
Nice write up, we should always stick to the golden rule to always love our neighbor as ourselves, and never allow the flame of love die.
The ultimate definition of love: 1 Corinthians 13. Sons should be like their father. Let's love one another. God, who is our father, is love!
We have to nurture that love that God gives us, The secret: The adoration.
