"I thirst." (The seven sayings of Christ of the Cross)

God is not immune to human suffering. He entered our world, clothed Himself with flesh, and walked our dusty roads under the blistering heat of the sun. When he stubbed His toe, it bled and hurt, and when He hung on the cross, He became thirsty. Christ bore not only our sins, but the cruel consequences of them. He chose to experience human thirst so we would never have to thirst again.
