Mosiah 3
King Benjamin teaches one of the most popular and most quoted verses in his speech -
"For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh as a child, 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." (Book of Mormon | Mosiah 3:19)
I specifically note "becometh" a saint and as a child. Becometh a child as king Benjamin suggests is "to be willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father". That is the challenge we all face.
