"We are commanded to obey our parents (Ephesians 6:1). Obedience is more than outwardly obeying with a resentful, grudging attitude. Obedience means inwardly obeying, from the heart, with eagerness and cheerfulness. True obedience means obeying even when it's hard. But obedience doesn't have to be painful. When we have a deep, abiding inner reverence for their wisdom and instruction, we will actually seek out their guidance and will consider their preferences are more important than our own."
