You can grow in love, only when you put into practice the love in which you have faith. Since you do not practise what you profess, your faith is weakened. A plant will grow only when it is watered regularly. After planting the seed of love, you must nurture it by watering it with love every day. Then the tree of love will grow and yield the fruits of love. Many today do not perform those noble deeds that will promote love. When you wish to develop love for the Lord, you must continuously practise devotion to Him
Divine Discourse, Sep 2, 1991.
