Obedience

I taught the lesson on Obedience last Sunday.

As the sisters and I discussed the topic I realized that the thought of being obedient in all things is easy--there is not much that we are asked to do that is difficult--say our prayers, read our scriptures, make time for family and spiritual things, be wise in our choices and decisions, be generous in our tithes and offerings. Unfortunately the doing of these things is often quite difficult.

Aristotle had this to say:
Wicked men obey because of fear
and good men obey because of love.

Now the question is....Why do I obey??
