Posted with permission. (I only helped clarify her thoughts.)

My name is Hazel Davidson and I was asked to give a talk about Jesus Christ always obeying Heavenly Father.

Jesus Christ always obeyed Heavenly Father, by following the “My Gospel Standards.”

Jesus remembered his baptismal covenants and listened to the Holy Ghost.

Jesus was honest with Heavenly Father, others, and himself.

He sought good friends and treated others kindly.

He dressed modestly to show respect for Heavenly Father and himself.

He only read things that were pleasing to Heavenly Father.

Jesus also only watched things that were pleasing to Heavenly Father. For example, even though there was
no TV, he did NOT stand by and watch a woman get stoned for her mistakes.

Jesus listened to music that was pleasing to Heavenly Father.

He used the name of Heavenly Father reverently and did not swear or use crude words.

He kept his mind and body sacred and pure, and did not eat or drink things that were harmful to him.

Jesus did those things on the Sabbath that helped him feel close to Heavenly Father.

He chose the right.

Jesus was worthy to go to the temple and served a mission the last few years of his life. He followed Heavenly Father’s plan for him, by becoming our Savior.

He was a child of God, just like us.

He knew Heavenly Father loved him, and Jesus loved Heavenly Father.

He prayed to Heavenly Father anytime, anywhere.

I had a personal experience, that I feel bad when I don’t follow Heavenly Father, but I know I can work hard and repent when I make a mistake. I am trying to follow Jesus.

I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Note: The “My Gospel Standards” used was the 1997 version found here (scroll down a bit. We didn’t notice there was a change. The current one can be found here.
