Jesus WEPT.  Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!
John 11:35,36
People are attracted to people who show emotion.  Don’t be afraid of showing emotion.  People will gather around you and listen to what you have to say because you are real.  There is no need to live in pretence because you are a leader.  Everyone born on this Earth laughs, cries, gets angry and becomes happy.  There are highs and lows in everyone’s life.
To be a leader you must exhibit reality.  We live in a real world with lots of problems.  A leader is a real human being with real emotions.  A leader will experience all the emotions his followers feel.  Most people don’t know what to do with their emotions.  If they find someone who is successful in spite of the real emotions he feels, they would like to relate with him.

Eight Reasons Why People Who Show Emotion Are Attractive

1. People who do not show emotion are often boring and are not interesting to be with.
2. People who do not show emotion kill the atmosphere around them.
There is a lot of tension when you sit with a strict and unsmiling individual who makes no contribution or comment about the conversation going on.
3. Emotionless men and women are often strict, stern, authoritarian, exacting and rigorous.
4. Emotionless people may be phony and artificial.
People simply do not want to deal with a pretender.
5. People feel that if someone reveals his true emotions, the things he says will also be true.
6. A show of emotion stirs up the emotions of others.
When people are stirred up emotionally, they become more committed.
7. People love to listen to a preacher who ministers varied emotions of joy, anger, sadness and suspense.
8. Jesus, our great example-setter, showed emotion on many occasions.

Five Examples of Jesus Showing Emotion

Luke 7:9
2. Jesus wept over cities.

And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
Luke 19:41
3. Jesus was moved with compassion for lost and helpless people.

But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.  Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;
Matthew 9:36,37
4. Jesus was angry with hypocrites.

And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,  And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:  And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables;
John 2:13-15
