7819. A person who has the good of charity and faith within him also loves self and the world; but he does so solely as the means to an end are loved. With him self-love looks to love of the Lord since he loves himself as a means to an end, which is that he may serve the Lord. And love of the world with him looks to love of the neighbour since he loves the world as a means because he loves the end, which is that he may serve his neighbour. When therefore the means is loved for the sake of the end, it is not the means one loves but the end.
