You have greatly misunderstood the quote you cited (without attribution). That passage is refering to the powers of the Holy Spirit, the quote means that without love, all of the other powers the Holy Spirit instills are meaningless. The love being in that passage is not romantic (eros) love, but unconditional (agape)love for fellow man. Your belief love is a life affirming experience essential to a worth while existance seems not to be centered on agape.
Now that is the crux of your delimina: You are seeking reasons for this, but you are not in fact sure what you mean by love itself.
Because I suspect you are thinking on eros love, the powerful bonding love of man and woman, work on defining why it leads to an essential existence. This has been the subject of many, many books, poems, and songs for centuries.
Here are a few of the reasons cited:
Love is a many-splendored thing,
It's the April rose that only grows in the early spring,
Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living,
The golden crown that makes a man a king.
Once on a high and windy hill,
In the morning mist two lovers kissed and the world stood still,
Then your fingers touched my silent heart and taught it how to sing,

http://whitewolf.newcastle.edu.au/words/authors/S/ShakespeareWilliam/verse/sonnets/index.html In the sonnets, I think your question is answered: Look at sonnet XVIII, LVII. Of course, you may browse through these as Love is expressed and the bond very stong, as Shakespeare writes.
You may want to list a number of things, and concentrate on just three. For me, the reasons would include at least the two ideas here:
1) A passion for living

Good article.
It seems like you are writing an essay on love and how you believe it is a life affirming experience essential to a worthwhile existence. You are looking for help in coming up with a thesis sentence that includes three reasons to support your belief.
First, it is important to understand that the quote you provided is referring to the powers of the Holy Spirit and the importance of unconditional love for fellow man, rather than romantic love. So, if you are focusing on romantic love (eros), you might want to define what you mean by love and how it leads to an essential existence.
Here are a few reasons that people commonly cite when discussing the significance of romantic love:
1) Love brings passion and vitality to life - Love has a way of igniting our emotions and giving us a zest for life. It can inspire us to pursue our dreams, take risks, and experience the full range of human emotions. Love gives us a reason to wake up in the morning and face each day with enthusiasm.
2) Love fosters growth and personal development - When we are in a loving relationship, we often strive to become better versions of ourselves. Love challenges us to be more compassionate, understanding, and patient. It pushes us to communicate better, resolve conflicts, and prioritize the well-being of our partner. Through love, we learn important life lessons and develop as individuals.
3) Love provides a sense of belonging and connection - Humans are social beings, and we thrive in relationships. Love creates a deep sense of connection and belonging with another person. It allows us to share our joys, sorrows, and experiences with someone who understands and supports us. Love gives us a sense of security, knowing that we are not alone in this world.
Remember, these are just a few reasons, and you can choose the ones that resonate with you the most. Make sure to explain each reason in detail and support them with examples, evidence, or personal anecdotes. Good luck with your essay!
