JESUS' AHA! MOMENT

Here are some interior monologues by Jesus just at the moment when he came up out of the Jordan after being baptized by John. He sees the dove and hears the voice from heaven saying, "This is my beloved son. Listen to him" These latter words are a citation from Is 42:1, and Jesus recognizes them as being about the mysterious "Suffering Servant" who will suffer for his people. The assignment is to write about Jesus's reaction, his "Aha! moment."

EPIPHANY

No way! How can this be? I can't believe it… How can I be your son?… Do I have to die? This is

crazy… I have lived all my life just to find this out… How can you tell me this so calmly? I don’t

think I have it in me… Am I really the savior?… Can I really save the whole world?… But why am I

just finding this out? You could have told me this earlier… If you are my father you could have told

me sooner, you could have… I'm sorry… I can’t argue with you… I will honor you abba… But do I

still have to die? I could have sworn that you said I was meant to save the people and not die for

them… WHAT? How could I save them by dying for them?...
