Brothers and sisters,
oftentimes we are tempted to compromise with circumstances of
the moment, but we must exercise care and live the principles of
righteous living at all times so we will know what to do when
called upon to make a decision of far greater importance. We
must always be examples to the world as members of the Lord's
kingdom and keep the laws of the land and the laws of God. — Adney
Y. Komatsu, "Looking
to
the Savior," "Ensign,"
May 1987, p. 79

The fact that people are physically nearby, regardless of the
setting, does not always equate to feelings of acceptance,
understanding, inclusion, and fellowship. In too many cases, the
reverse may be true. Feelings of acceptance and inclusion come
when someone invites us into their circle of friendship and
activity. Far beyond fun and games, activities represent at least
one nonthreatening way to accept, include, understand, and
fellowship others. Perceived in this manner, activities become
another vehicle to show charity, love, kindness, forgiveness,
service, and to include and not exclude. Amulek said, 'If ye do
not remember to be charitable, ye are as dross, which the refiners
do cast out, (it being of no worth). (Alma 34:29.) - Adney Y.
Komatsu, "Please Hear the Call!" Ensign (CR), May 1992, p. 29

In the Church
we have many opportunities to perform charitable acts. Some of
the greatest acts of charity begin with an outstretched hand of
friendship. - Adney Y. Komatsu, "The
Light of the Gospel," Ensign (CR) October 1981
