Matthew 27:45-46 (LSB) 45 Now from the sixth hour darkness fell upon all the land until the ninth hour. 46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, \u201cEli, Eli, lama sabachthani?\u201d that is, \u201cMy God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?<\/span>\u201d<\/p>\n

Sometimes the concept and truth of Jesus being a full-on human being is hard for our minds to grasp.<\/p>\n

He was, after all, Immanuel, God with us.<\/p>\n

He was God, yet He was man.<\/p>\n

His in-body human experience was full, not partial. He was born as a man and spent roughly 33 years walking the earth, showing us who God is through His words and His actions.<\/p>\n

He felt everything that you and I feel in our lives; joy, pain, laughter, suffering, temptation, discomfort, weariness, and betrayal.<\/p>\n

He proclaimed to everyone that He did only what His Father showed Him to do and spoke only what His Father told Him to speak.<\/p>\n

John 12:49 (LSB) 49 For I did not speak from Myself, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment\u2014what to say and what to speak<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Jesus also wept, showing His human side in a way that every other human being can relate to.<\/p>\n

But His most human, vulnerable moment was shortly before His death, as He cried out the words, \u201cMy God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?\u201d<\/p>\n

Not long after, He spoke one last time and then surrendered His spirit up to the Father.<\/p>\n

Luke 23:46 (LSB) 46 And Jesus, crying out with a loud voice, said, \u201cFather, into Your hands I commit My spirit<\/span>.\u201d Having said this, He breathed His last.<\/p>\n

You see, Jesus was fully surrendered to the Father. This was His example to us, His followers.<\/p>\n

We must not just attempt to mimic His words or His behaviors. But let us truly surrender ourselves to God in a way that carries weight, rendering us as bondservants of Christ, wholly committed to Him in everything we do.<\/p>\n

Amen<\/p>\n
