How can we love someone we haven't seen, and yet love Him constantly? Loving the Lord with your mind helps with that question. God can preoccupy your mind even when you are not consciously thinking of Him.
"You love Him even though you have never seen Him. Though you do not see Him now, you trust Him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy." (1 Peter 1:8)

Intentional Life
Your intentional life begins in the interior, but doesn't end there. It controls, frames and results in an effective exterior life, and you will get to know the God you love better.
"A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart. What you say flows from what is in your heart." (Luke 6:45)

Loving God, loving others
A life of love toward God shapes a life of love toward neighbor.
I am writing to remind you, dear friends, that we should love one another. This is not a new commandment, but one we have had from the beginning." (2 John 5)

God is God
It is right to be involved with loving God, preoccupied with loving Jesus, simply because God is God.
