“When obedience becomes our goal, it is no longer an irritation; instead of a stumbling block, it becomes a building block.”

    

                              James E. Faust

This means that if you pay attention to go to school every day, it will become a building block. If you don’t go to the deep side of the sea because you don’t know how to swim, you will make that a building block. If you wear your uniform to school because you are doing the right thing, it will become a building block. If you want to buy something but you are obedient and you don’t buy it because it’s bad, you changed that into a building block. If you try your best at school to not get in trouble, you are trying to be obedient. On the other hand, if you don’t pay attention in school, your building block will become a stumbling block. If you go to the deep side of the sea and you start drowning, you will stumble your block. If you don’t wear your uniform, you will stumble your block. If you buy what you weren’t supposed to buy, you will not be obedient. That’s why obedience is a building block.
