Not sure I know three, but can start you off with one. At the beginning of Bamidbar the yidden are counted. Rashi asks why does Hashem count? and answer is because He loves bnei yisrael.

The whole Shir Hashirim is a song of love between Am Yisrael and Hashem.

I don't know where in tanach it says it but Hashem calls the Jews "bni b'chori,yisrael." The reference as the bechor is supposed to be Hashem considers us His firstborn. Not sure if its the same pasuk (is it yirmiyahu?) but then there is "ahava klulosayich lechtech achrai bamidbar b'eretz lo zaruah." Hashem refers to bnei yisrael's love for Hashem like that of a kallah that they followed Him through the midbar for 40 years and that will be an eternal zechus for us.

Here's what I thought of offhand:
1. In Navi, Hashem says "I hated Esav but I loved Yaakov."
2. Hashem counted us at the beginning of Bamidbar out of love.
3. In Yirmiyahu, Hashem considers it a chessed that the Bnei Yisrael followed Hashem into the desert. Hashem says, "I remembered in your merit the kindness of your youth, the love you showed Me as a kallah."
4. The bris bein habesarim - Hashem devoted Himself to the Jewish people.
5. In Yirmiyahu, Hashem tells the Navi, "nachamu nachamu ami" - tell my People that her sins are forgiven and that she has already been doubly punished for her sins.
6. The whole Yetzias Mitzrayim was about "You will be my Nation and I will be Your Elokim."
Does Hashem have to spell it out? Hashem's love for us is unfathomable. Thet's why Hashem created the world, out of love, to do chessed for us.
