Luke 1: 50 - God will show mercy forever and ever to those who worship and serve him.
Jesus was upon this earth for 33 years. He experienced all the things we experience: felt weak, weary, hungry, temptations, got cold, needed to bathe, and his feelings got hurt.
Some people are uncomfortable thinking of Jesus as human. It is easier to keep humanity out of incarnation. It is easier to pretend he didn't experience the things we do; like blowing our nose, sweating, bumping into things. Then we can keep him divine, distant, and predictable.
Let him be human. Let him in our troubled world. For only if we let him in can he pull us out.
