Cam Jansen is a delightful early-reader series.  She is a young sleuth that has a photographic memory.  Early in each story, she "CLICKS" her photographic memory to remember details that will become important later in the story. 

That is exactly what happens in today's account about Jesus.  ⅔ of the way through the passage the crowd asks, "Who is this Son of Man"?  Ironically, the question is being answered as they speak by the Cam Jansen "CLICK" that they are already in.

In this image 5 days before his death, we find Jesus TROUBLED.  It might be my favorite part.  This detail shows us that Jesus is real.  Of course He is unsettled, there is a crucifixion ahead.

We also find Jesus, prayerful, decisive, purposeful, educational, prophetic and intimate.  The veil between the worlds is lifted and the Father speaks.  I suppose the Father often or always speaks, we just don't hear it.  In a future glory, this won't be weird at all.  He will always be speaking, and this very unusual for scripture event will be I hope daily.  I am impressed as to the BE WITH ME relationship of the Father and Son in this passage.

Finally, there is a call.  Believe.  Become.  Move.  Don't let the darkness overtake you.  Apparently, stationary spiritual objects are overtaken.  Enlightened spiritual objects move, walk and GROW.  To that end, come back tomorrow after you listen today.
