DOES GOD REALLY REQUIRE ABSOLUTE OBEDIENCE

GOD  SETS  STANDARDS FOR OUR GOOD  AND TO PROTECT  US FROM EVIL AND HATM . GOD  DESIRES OBEDIENCE MOTIVATED NOT BY FEAR  BUT  BY LOVE AND TRUST, IRONICALLY, OBEDIENCE   ACTUALLY  FREES US UP TO ENJOY LIFE AS GOD  INTENDED, BECAUSE IT KEEPS US  FROM  BECOMING  ENTANGLED  OR ENSLAVED TO THOSE THINGS THAT DISTRACT US AND CAUSE US HEARTACHE. EVEN THROUGH GOD;S  COMMAND  IS SOMETIMES DIFFICULT , OR  DOESN.T MAKE  SENSE FROM OUR  HUMAN PERSPECTIVE, OBEDIENCE  WILL ALWAYS BRING  BLESSING, JOY, AND PEACE.
