Why can't you stop crying and tell me what's the matter??" Mothering is hard work, and I imagine she didn't always get it right, either. grtlyblesdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18386260509307925901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4027870719667125440.post-55553544719134849082013-12-18T14:11:41.613-05:002013-12-18T14:11:41.613-05:00This is beautiful.

I agree that Jesus likely did cry being fully man as well as fully God, especially since crying is communication for babies. I just downloaded the Kindle sample of your book.

After all, that is how babies communicate before they learn to speak. <br /><br />You make a good point, though, that He was likely an unusually contented child, resting in the security of the Father's love.Joe Potehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128078440003054702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4027870719667125440.post-86721634643890328932013-12-18T06:55:16.399-05:002013-12-18T06:55:16.399-05:00I love how you connected wailing with a lack of tr...I love how you connected wailing with a lack of trust.

However, I don't think He cried impatiently or ever cried out of selfishness, just to communicate that He had a need.<br />I found you on Titus 2sday Linkup.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18174625682290311034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4027870719667125440.post-63702613357538736262013-12-16T21:17:51.753-05:002013-12-16T21:17:51.753-05:00I was just wondering the exact same thing today!

I came to the conclusion that Jesus cried as a baby, too - he wept as an adult right, so why not as a baby? <br /><br />Thanks for linking up with #HearItUseIt, Lori - Christmas blessings to your and yours!Michelle DeRushahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00359712465784943599noreply@blogger.com
