In John 2:1- we will be experiencing Jesus's first miracle so lets go into the beginning of the story.
1On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus' mother was there, 2and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. 3When the wine was gone, Jesus' mother said to him, "They have no more wine."
4"Dear woman, why do you involve me?" Jesus replied, "My time has not yet come."
Lets stop there
At this point, you have to know that Jesus is the son of god, cause how many children do you know that would call their mother "woman". That wouldn't fly in my house.
5His mother said to the servants, "Do whatever he tells you."
Well it looks like his mother ignored Jesus. By now if that was my mom, my backside would be bruised.
6Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.
7Jesus said to the servants, "Fill the jars with water"; so they filled them to the brim.
a]"> 8Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet."
O.k., by now I'm thinking that the people aren't going to be happy if they see that the only beverage is that nasty water, so it looks like that, that's not the end of it.
They did so, 9and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10and said, "Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now."
11This, the first of his miraculous signs, Jesus performed in Cana of Galilee. He thus revealed his glory, and his disciples put their faith in him.
So lets review this story.
Mary comes to Jesus and tells him that there's no wine. Jesus replys with an attitude. Then he went and got water and turned it to wine. So then he gave it to the party guest.
The out come his first miracle, was to keep the party going.
YA!!!!!!
O.K. I belive that the story is finished, but next story is one of my favorites, Jesus Clears The Temple.
