EXPLORING JESUS WEPT

    To say JESUS was an exceptional human being is such an understatement that I
couldn't even come up with something to compare it to. It's like saying World War
One and Two were big wars, but bigger. Frank Sinatra was a great singer, but
bigger.
    JESUS was 100% GOD and 100% man. More man than you or I, because the
fall of man in the garden made us less than GOD created. JESUS, of course is
more than even Adam was.
    How does GOD, who knows and sees all, have a human side?
    GOD allows our choices, good or bad, to work to make us better Christians. GOD
sees our pain, but if temporary pain causes a greater good for us, GOD will allow it.
    Think of how that affected CHRIST with Mary and Martha. The death of their
brother, Lazarus, caused these women unbearable pain, because they knew the
MASTERS' power.
    The 100% GOD in JESUS knew the greater good that was going to happen.
    The 100% man in JESUS loved this family so much, that to see them suffer,
even temporarily, was more than HE could bare.
    How wonderful it is to have a SAVIOR that understands and can totally embrace
our feelings.
    How wonderful to have a GOD, that would not only live a sacrificial life, but
die as the ultimate sacrifice.
    JESUS WEPT, so that we can weep with tears of joy for all
                                             HE HAS DONE ! ! !
