What makes Jesus so special is that He has two natures, a human nature and a divine nature. He has the same struggles of a free willing human but at the same time, in His Spirit He is God, what makes Him be a perfect being.
We, on the other hand, are born with one nature, the human one. Therefore since we are born we follow the wants and needs of our human nature, we cry when we are hungry, we act on emotions and feelings until one day it all changes.
The change in that pattern is when we accept Jesus in our hearts. According to the Bible, when we accept Him as our Lord and Saviour, He lives inside of us in our Spirit. What was empty before, or even full of evil, now is clean and filled by Jesus' power.
That's the advantage of having a God living inside of us, controling our spirit and soul, of course we still have the wants and desires of our human nature but because our Spirit is in Jesus' control, we no longer fall for them, we now have the tools to control ourselves and do not be enslaved by wants and wishes.
