Jesus Suffered Anxiety And Fears

Here's a tiny, little insight that has such a huge message.

Hebrews 5:7    KJV
Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers
and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that
was able to save [G4982] him from death, and was heard in
that he feared [G2124];

This verse tells us about the suffering before the cross. It
was a part of his days when He lived among us. It does not
say it applied just to the Garden where He gave out great
drops of blood in sweat. It speaks of the time during the
'days of His flesh'

G2124 - Eulabeia (feminine noun) = caution, circumspection,
discretion by avoidance and/or reasonable shunning; reverence,
veneration by reverence toward God, godly fear, piety; fear,
anxiety, dread.

I believe Jesus offered up prayers, strong crying with tears
through out all of his 33 years on the Earth. Even though
He had His Heavenly Father in unique Oneness, that did
not negate His feelings, His emotional well-being and His
own struggles with in what He feared.
