Alma 7:12 And he will take upon him death, that he may loose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to succor his people according to their infirmities.
Because Jesus experienced life in much the same way the rest of us do with a physical body, and because He lived among man, He knows what it all feels like. He can offer comfort and healing as no one else can or could. Praise Him for those gifts. I also recognize that while on earth, in a mortal body, He also knew and could understand the thoughts and feelings of those around Him by the "wisdom of God". I love Him for this, and trust that it gave Him deeper understanding of everyone because of it. And then He experienced the suffering in Gethsemane and on the Cross. He knows of our pain and suffering.
