To love God, we must focus upon him alone and not get sidetracked by or become attached to anything along the way. As St. John of the Cross said, if a beautiful statue or image draws us to the Lord, we must never become attracted to it and lose sight of the Lord it represents. On a pilgrimage, even if I witness a miracle, I should not let it distract me from my concentration on the Lord. We are to zero in on him alone, the Lord of all.
