As little children

Scriptures to study:

• Matthew 18:3–4
• Doctrine and Covenants 78:17–18. 
• Mosiah 3:19

Questions to ponder:

1.    Review Matthew 18:3–4 and Doctrine and Covenants 78:17–18. Explain in writing the ways we are like little children. In these verses, how does the Lord ​say He will help us?

In Matthew, Christ emphasized the humility of a child as a requirement for salvation.

In the Doctrine and Covenants we are compared with children in the sense that our discernment is limited compared to our Heavenly Father's wisdom. However, He in his infinite love, promises to bless and guide us as a Father does with his son.

2.    Read Mosiah 3:19 and list the ways in which we are to become as little children.

·        Submissive

·        Meek

·        Humble,

·        Patient

·        Full of love

·        Willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even      as a child doth submit to his father.
