And Jesus grew in wisdom and in stature, and in favor with God and men.
Luke 2:52
Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was in the place where Martha had found him.
Then the Jews who were at home with her and comforted her, when they saw that Mary had gotten up quickly and had gone out, they followed her, saying: Go to the tomb to mourn there.
Mary, when she came to where Jesus was, when she saw him, she fell at his feet, saying: Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
Jesus then, seeing her crying, and the Jews who accompanied her, also crying, shuddered in spirit and was moved,
and said: Where did you put him? They said: Lord, come and go.
Jesus cried.
The Jews then said: Look how I loved you.
And some of them said: Could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind man, have also made Lazarus not die?
John 11: 30-37
Here we see Jesus MAN, he was moved to know about the death of his friend and he cried.
This text reveals the HUMANITY OF JESUS, equal to ours.
We see another example:
Elijah was a man subject to passions similar to ours, and he prayed fervently that it would not rain, and it did not rain on earth for three years and six months.
Santiago 5:17
You can read in 1 Kings 18 when Elijah prays to God and fire falls from heaven, then kills the prophets of Baal, later he prays that it will rain and rain, mighty man of God. Then in chapter 19 we see how he flees frightened by the threat of death of Jezebel and Elijah even wishes to die "Manifest your humanity."
Manifesting that you are an ordinary human being does NOT make you any more or less before God, we have many examples of leaders who claim to be PERFECT in their humanity, using positivism as a refuge so as not to show fears or doubts, not having enough faith in them. certain moments is normal in us "HUMAN BEINGS".
There is the WORD OF GOD to infuse us with FAITH, the Holy Spirit to GUIDE and ENCOURAGE us.
Strengthen ourselves in the inner man.
Remember
If you are going through a difficult circumstance and you are afraid ?, remember that Elías Man of God after performing an unimaginable spectacle before the eyes of thousands, soon frightened he wanted to die.
It is not sin to be afraid and manifest what we feel.
Is someone sick among you? Call the elders of the church, and pray for him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
James 5:14.
Let us open our hearts and express GOD as we are all that we are feeling, He knows our humanity more than ourselves.
I leave you with this reflection and from now DO NOT try to hide behind methods, that your refuge is THE WORD OF GOD, there the Holy Spirit moves and that we need, "THE WORD OF GOD IS ENOUGH"!
GOD add blessings to your life!

Now i see the character of God in my human nature. Lovely and educative.
Simple and easy Thank you very much for commenting. follow you.
I just read your post. It is very interesting They are quotes where it is seen that Jesus is true man and true God.
regards
Exactly, 100% man, 100% God.
Wow. That's a very great post. We must surely admit that we are humans. In such way, we're going to be admitting that we are needy and God will surely come to our aid. Now about positivism, it's a philosophy that has entered into nowadays Christianity. People are taught to behave all are good even though they might be engulfed in a problem. The best way is to be open before God, acknowledge your need and weaknesses before him and he'll heal you. Amen.
Yes !, I am not against positivism. I am against replacing the word with positivism. thanks for comment.
莫名的喜欢上这张图了...........
You know what?
I cannot get tired of reading this Scripture:
It reminds me that God created us all with unique giftings.
Exactly, he created us HUMAN BEINGS, but now we have the divine nature in us! Thanks for comment.
I agree with you @cyclope! It is natural to be afraid sometimes. but it is quite different from fear.
Afraid Definition: feeling fear or anxiety; frightened.
Fear Definition: Fear is a feeling induced by perceived danger or threat that occurs in certain types of organisms, which causes a change in metabolic and organ functions and ultimately a change in behavior, such as fleeing, hiding, or freezing from perceived traumatic events.
The Bible says in Romans 8:15: For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
Excellent, but I am human and there are times that I am afraid even if I trust fully in GOD. My nature betrays me "I have fears".
Thank you very much for your contribution. I follow you!.
