"At times we may rationalize that the Lord will understand our disobedience because our special circumstances make adherence to His laws difficult, embarrassing or even painful.
"However, faithful obedience, regardless of the apparent size of the task, will bring the Lord's guidance, assistance and peace."
Elder Bruce A. Carlson, "When the Lord Commands," Ensign, May 2010, 39
