Do god and Jesus cry?
Answer: As a man, Jesus cried real tears when he was sad. God does not shed tears today, but he feels sad when people are hurting, when they disobey him, and when they don’t believe in him.
We can bring God joy by living as we should, showing love to others, and telling people about Christ.
