We all possess spiritual gifts. Some are blessed with the gift of faith, others the gift of healing. In the body of the Church, all of the spiritual gifts are present. In my case, perhaps one of the spiritual gifts for which I am most grateful is that I have been blessed with an obedient spirit. When I heard wise counsel from my parents or Church leaders, I listened and tried to make it part of my thoughts and actions.

…I urge you to cultivate the gift of an obedient spirit. – Joseph B. Wirthlin, “Life’s Lessons Learned,” Ensign (CR) May 2007
