Wow!… This is what God wanted!… Why so long?... This is crazy… Me? The son of God… This is a joke… I’m a regular carpenter from Nazareth… What does God want from me?… What can I do?... How can I possibly help God?... But wait… All those scriptures in synagogue school... Oh yeah… It’s all connecting now!… Those scriptures always made me feel different… While the other kids fooled around, the scriptures always touched me...They always made me feel special… Ah ha!... I got it… My eyes are open… Those scriptures were talking about me!...I am the Son of God…Pretty cool… I’m special… I’m the Suffering Servant sent to deliver his people...Wait!...Did I hear myself correctly?... I have to sacrifice my life?… WHAT?... WHY?...Is God crazy?... Why wasn’t I told this before?... I love these people… I want to help them… But, I have to die for them?...Why me?... I haven’t sinned or done anything wrong?...Why do I have to do such a thing?...This doesn't make sense… I guess this comes with the territory… That’s it!... My purpose on earth is to die for my people...Through my death, they’ll receive salvation… My blood will redeem them…OK, this is starting to make sense… This world will never be perfect… In fact, evil will never leave the earth… This has to be done… These people need forgiveness…This will be a tough mission… Am I ready?... I can’t let God down… I will suffer… No doubt… But no matter what, I will complete this mission… I’ll get the job done… I’m terrified, yes, but I have to suck it up… But what if the people still reject my father after everything I’m going to do?... What then?... All my suffering would’ve been for nothing… I won’t think about that… God’s counting on me... I have to fulfill God’s plan… It won’t be easy but, God’s got my back… I need to have his… I will face adversity, yea, but so what?... I’m doing it for God… I’m ready for this mission, but is the world ready to accept my sacrifice?... I hope so…
