John 15:9-13
9 “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. 11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. 12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.
To really dwell in God's love, we should be doing what He told us. This is Jesus' example as the Son of God, and as His sons and daughters we must be no different. So we are not only to love God, but to love each other even to the point of laying down our lives. But this is primarily possible only because we are abiding in God's love in loving obedience.
"He is committed to the display of his glory (Isaiah 43:7) and invites you to embrace that mission as one of utmost importance (1 Corinthians 10:31)."
