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."

who is supposed to save humanity…  Will people even appreciate my sacrifices?...  Maybe not, but

some will… Ah what am I talking about…  This is crazy…  Dying?...  Death upon me?...  Please

no…  Father I love you…  But…
