It is the highest service to submit the evil impulse to God through the power of love.

For The Sake of Heaven (1945)

Every morning
I shall concern myself anew about the boundary
Between the love-deed-Yes and the power-deed-No
And pressing forward honor reality.

Power and Love (1926)

God ... demands everything, in order to give everything anew to him who loves Him, after that loving has truly given up all.

For The Sake of Heaven (1945)
