Jesus honored His Mother at the wedding at Cana and fulfilled her request with His first miracle.

Huh??

WHAT 'request'??


Honor?

Woman; what's that got to do with ME?


The ONLY recorded words of Mary at Cana
And when the wine gave out, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.”
His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it” (John 2:3-5).

John 2:1-5 On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus also was invited to the wedding with his disciples.

When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” And Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.”

His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”

IOW, Jesus asks Mary, by addressing her as *Woman* and not even *Mom*, *Why is that my problem?*
