(One that hit REALLY close to home)

-Our desires vs His will
-Unwilling to listen or submit
-"Get 'my own' revelation" (Marriage, kids, (husband and wife, revelation needed from both))

* Linda K. Burton, General Relief Society Pres.
-We are the Lord's hands

* Jeffrey R. Holland, Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
(Another favorite)
-Repeatedly told Apostles that He would not leave them alone
-"It is the Lord!" Why suprised?

-Be loyal
-If you love Me, keep My commandments
-We have good to do!
