"The key to freedom is obedience. The more obedient we are, the more freedom we have".
                                                                                                        - Boyd K. Packer
This means that if we are more obedient than disobedient, we will be more free than contained. Obedience is key to being free. If you are not obedient then you are not free. If you are obedient and choosing the right then you will be as free as you can be. It is as simple as that.
If you are free then you should be obedient. If you are not obedient yet given the privilege to be free, then eventually that freedom will be taken from you. Choose to be obedient and be proud of being free. Be grateful that you have freedom within our country and respect that with obedience.
