This is not like the-chicken-and-the-egg thing. We do, can only love God because God loved us first, that is, unconditionally. There is nothing we can do that can diminish God's love for us and nothing we can do to increase it. What God gives us is His love that is uniquely for us.
When we correspond to God's love, His love doesn't increase, but we increase our capacity to receive it and to be filled by it.
