What is Love?
It is something that is shown through action most of the time.

Definition of love; to give something to someone at your expense. To duplicate what Jesus did. To humble yourself. To esteem others. Simply put live what you talk about.
Here are several verses to back up the point I trying to make.
John 3:16
1Corinthians 13: all
1 John 4:1-8
