Love As A Key To Knowing

It's a common idea that love blurs people's vision--that it distorts people's view of reality. In the message for today, I've said the opposite--that a truly loving heart brings one closer to the truth and makes a person's perception of reality more clear and accurate. 

Usually someone's judgment is clouded by "love" when love is understood only as an emotion. Considering the way Jesus equates love for him with obedience to his commands in John 14:19-24, what more is love than just emotion? 

What would be a good example of someone acting in love when the loving act may not involve warm feelings?
