The Servants Knew

Read:
John 2:1-11

[Jesus'] mother said to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it." —John 2:5

Bible In One Year: John 1-3

cover Few weddings are matters of life and death, but they often feel that way to the people involved. After giving three daughters in marriage, I can appreciate the concern parents have over proper arrangements for their guests. So whenever I read about the wedding in Cana in John 2:1-11, I find myself smiling at every turn.

Although the events strike me as lighthearted, Jesus' miracle of turning water into wine had the serious purpose of revealing Himself as the Son of God to His disciples.

Many people may have seen the large stone jars being filled with water. But it was the servants, who had poured every gallon, to whom the Lord said, "Draw some out now, and take it to the master of the feast" (v.8). The Bible says simply, "And they took it." Their unhesitating obedience is a model for us in our daily God-given tasks.

The master praised the bridegroom, saying, "You have kept the good wine until now!" He didn't know its origin (v.10), "but the servants who had drawn the water knew" (v.9).

Like them, we recognize that whenever God uses our meager efforts to help others, it's a miracle of His power. The servants at Cana who drew the water knew that the praise belonged to Jesus. And so do we. —David McCasland

I can always count on God, my heavenly Father,
For He changes not; He always is the same—
Yesterday, today, forever, He is faithful,
And I know He loves me, praise His holy name. —Felten

God's great power deserves our grateful praise.

A bit of sad news this morning. Ink passed peacefully away last night while being held lovingly by Tribune7, her master. She will be buried in our front yard in front of the statue of St. Francis near the bird feeders

Thank you for your prayers and kind words.

Our Ink she has gone
Where the good doggies go
And no more with Ink will we roam
But if dogs have a heaven
There`s one thing I know
Our Ink has a wonderful home
