Yes and No.

It was the Blessed Virgin Mary who asked her son (really told her son) they are out of wine.

And what are her last words in the Bible?

“Do whatever he tells you.”

Mary always directs everything back to her Son, Jesus, truly human and truly divine.

Worthy of great honor, but not worship.

Words have meanings, these mean, ignore Mary and go to Jesus.

This is a prime example of the danger of one verse theology. Catholics have taken this one verse out of all the NT and have built this notion that Mary somehow instructs Jesus on what to do for the rest of His life. The Bible teaches that He came to do His FATHER's will.

This has somehow morphed into the false worship/prayers to Mary and all of the other non-Biblical attributes assigned to her.
