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."

Walt B., Baptism

Interior Monologue

Dang!... This is it huh?...Coming to be baptized… To live.... All for the matter


of the people… Am I really the “Son of God?”... Wait! What is that?! A dove

descending from the Heavens - reassuring me that I am truly the Son of

God?... Could this be true?... Yes! This is it! This is what I’m destined to do…

This is what makes my father proud. I’m going to do it!... I'm going to save

the people of the world. I'm going to make this world a better place. Forever

shall my covenant live. And they shall call me; Christ; the son of God. They’ll

never forget me!...
