621-629, Obedience.

Don't behave conditional on perfect agreement with leaders, obedience is martyrdom without death, order to do something seemingly useless & difficult quickly becomes easy & fruitful, everything in its place, abandon your flourishing personal work when someone in obedience commands, Jesus keep me smiling, live silent obedience, remember the Lord's obedient death on cross, miracles through obedience are repeated every day.  --- from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá
