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."

Interior Monologue block one


(exhale)... Huh.. Does anyone else hear that?!?.. Huh me? Am I ready no... I'm a carpenter... Maybe I’m meant for something else... I can't do this… But if this is the will of the beholder… I’m not... Why me?... Hold up... This is God…I’m his son?...What's going on?... But Joseph and Mary… Maybe its a metaphor... But how?... I'm so confused.. I'm his son?… He is not a man that would lie so... oh Lord help me now... Talk about humble beginnings: a manger, a carpenter ...But now... All this... For real?!?...
