“Obedience
is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy.”
-David A.

You can use
the “bright side” of these tests are to your advantage and to grow. Obedience can be a
tool for bettering yourself. Don’t go against the tide but embrace it! It'll be
motivation! You need to think of the negative consequences that can occur if
one does not follow directions. If you are strong enough to be obedient you know
what your integrity is strong. I think that what this means is that in order to
learn things we must let ourselves. To refuse is to shut off possibilities of
doing things correctly. We must not always meet things in opposition. Instead
we should comply and listen and do as we are told in order to understand the
true reason behind it. If we are obedient we are free from worries about
getting caught. We are free from guilt and shame. If we do what we are told to
do then we will find that we are blessed with the freedom we deserve. Obedience is always the best way to go when you know deep in your heart that it is the right thing to do.
