The best lesson on Love is what Jesus did for us on the cross. Jesus is the son of God. He gave his life freely on a cross so that we could receive eternal life. So what does love mean to you? Love is an outward show to others, through kindness, action, emotion.

Examples of love

• showing emotion- cry when someone is hurting,  

• action- how you feel, care for someone, hugging someone 

• Active Compassion: Love is demonstrated through actions, not just feelings.
