On the third day a wedding took place in Cana of Galilee, Jesus' mother was there and Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding as well. When the wine ran out, Jesus' mother told Him, "they don't have any wine." ..."Do whatever He tells you" His mother told the servants. Jn 2:1-3,5
I am a mother of a 32 and 30 year old. They would reply just as Jesus did. "What has this concern of yours to do with me, woman? Jesus asked, "My time has not yet come." In other words Mummm! Stop it! I am grown up now I will decide for myself!
Yet Mary knew something. As mothers often do. I wonder what she knew? Prophesy, the message of the angel Gabriel, or was there more? Had she seen something? Had Jesus already been doing something?
Whatever the reason He did respond and the first recorded miracle took place. Jesus performed this first sign in Cana of Galilee. He displayed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him. V 11
So what had Jesus been doing with His disciples? Teaching them? Getting to know them?
Scripture does not say, but now they know He is the Christ. (good on ya mum!)
