Debra Farrington calls our attention to a children's book written by Kenneth Grahame titled Wind in the Willows. The book is about four animals, and one day Little Portly, the baby otter is missing. Rat and Mole show concern and wonder what to do. The following dialogue explains their dilemma: "Rat," said the Mole, "I simply can't go and turn in, and go to sleep, and do nothing, even though there doesn't seem to be anything to be done. We'll get the boat out and paddle upstream. The moon will be up in an hour or so, and then we will search as well as we can -- anyhow, it will be better than going to bed and doing nothing."
Love is something you do. Our text explains it best of all, especially in the following words: "How does God's love abide in anyone who has the world's goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet refuses to help?" (1 John 3:17).
