That statement is very telling. Do you remember when you were a small child and you could have a disagreement with another child, say "sorry", and then everything was ok again and the offense was completely forgotten?
Or how about being a little kid and having no knowledge of classes of people (rich, poor) or racism?
As we mature, we lose those wonderful qualities. We become judgmental and unforgiving.
So how do we "turn and become like children"?
My belief is that we don't because we can't. However, Jesus will transform us. He will, in an instant, refine us into perfection and we will again be innocent, humble, loving, beings.
