Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.

This verse is pretty much explains itself. Because love comes from God, then we must go by his example and love others as he does. This love drives us to go beyond the call of duty to help someone, whether emotionally or physically. Without this type of love, it can not be truly called love at all. heart
