"For Relief Society, the charity of our motto is not an abstraction. It is a
love beyond the emotion we might feel for or from others. It isn't a 'what's in
it for me?' kind of love. Being friendly, generous, and respectful of others
moves us along the way from self-concern, but the selflessness of the kind of
love that Christ commanded us to learn is a high step indeed. 'Bless them that
curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them who despitefully use
you' (3 Ne. 12:44). He
promises that as we learn that kind of love, we can become perfect!" - Aileen H.
Clyde, "Relief
Society: Charity, the Guiding Principle," Ensign (CR), November 1993, p.92
