Those who do things for love may do them well, but thinking they are doing great service for their neighbor, who is sick for instance, they may annoy them with their chatter, their advice and with their help. Such "charity" is burdensome and inappropriate.... But Love, which is God, is light and with the light we see whether our way of approaching and serving our brother or sister is according to the heart of God, as our brother or sister would wish it to be, as they would dream of it being, if they had beside them not us, but Jesus. Chiara Lubich
