It can be easy to think that because Jesus was God, His experience on earth would be hard for us to relate to. But this passage shows us the humanity of Jesus in a way we may not be used to. Here, Jesus has learned his friend died, and when He visits the tomb, He cries. His reaction is full of compassion. Jesus doesn’t just think, “this is really sad.” And he doesn’t just say, “I feel really sad.” He couldn’t help but show it, and the way that happened for Him was through very real tears. His compassion is displayed in the way He expresses His emotions. And the people around Him saw it. In the same way, when we truly feel compassion, it overflows in ways other people can see. We show it—in our emotions, behavior, and what we do because of it. What is a situation where your compassion can move from being something you just feel to something you do?
