Obedience

David Bednar states, “Obedience is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy.” He means that in order to be happy you have to follow the rules and do as you are told (of course only if it’s the right thing to do). For example, if you are obedient then you will live happy because you have nothing to worry about because you haven’t done anything bad. When I am obedient I feel happy and I get rewarded and everyone wants that. All you have to do is be obedient and you will get something you want or/and need. You shouldn’t just be obedient to get something out of it, though, you should also be obedient because it will make you feel better as a person. You get rewarded, but your mind shouldn’t be set on what material you get. Instead it should be set on what you get in the inside; happiness and love. When we disobey the rules we aren’t happy no matter what you might tell yourself, you know you did wrong and you know you feel bad, don’t try to pretend like you don’t. So by disobeying we get unnecessary stress and we worry when we could've easily just do what was right and be happy. Why do what is wrong if you know you will feel bad afterwards?? Just be obedient and you will see how happy you become!!
