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."

What I was thinking when John baptized me.

Why is there a dove over my head?...  I guess God really loves me!... Wow...He says He's pleased with me... Does this baptism by John mean that I am going to save many people through my suffering?... Will they do for others what I do for them?... He'll give me the Holy Spirit to help me die for them...  I know the Father loves me so much that he will resurrect me...
