Catholics heed He Who began by turning water into wine.

. Those ‘six stone jars’ at Cana were actually almost as big as oil drums!

~

The Power of Jesus became clear at The Wedding Feast of Cana. Jn 2:1-11 tells us: “There was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and The Mother of Jesus was there. Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding.”

Question 1: “What went wrong?”

Answer: “The newlyweds’ parents could not afford the wedding they had arranged! What an embarrassing way to start married life! Mary knew Jesus could solve the problem
‘When the wine ran short, She said to Him, ‘They have no wine.’

~

Question 2: “What happened?”

Answer: “‘And Jesus said to her, ‘Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come.’

~

Question 3: “Did Mary know that ‘His hour had come’?”

Answer: “His ‘hour’ came one minute later! ‘His mother said to the servers, ‘Do whatever He tells you.’

~

Question 4: “Did Jesus obediently ‘serve’ His Mother?”

Answer: “Yes! ‘Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons.’” Huge, stone jars were expensive! The families had been rich enough to afford them. Now, they were broke!”

~

Question 5: “What did Jesus tell the the ‘servers’ to do?”

Answer: ‘Jesus told them, ‘Fill the jars with water.’

~

Question: “Were they the first ‘servers’ to obey Jesus?”

Answer: “Yes. They asked themselves, ‘What is the point of this?’ Obedience is always more important to good ‘servers’ than understanding! ‘So they filled them to the brim.’ Then, He gave another order the good ‘servers’ obeyed! ‘Then He told them, ‘Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter.’

~

Question 7: “Did the ‘servers’ obey Him?

Answer: “Yes! Good ‘servers’ always obey Jesus!” ‘So they took it. And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from, although the servers who had drawn the water knew. The headwaiter called the bridegroom and said to him, ‘Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now.’

~

Question 8: “Why is The Miracle of Cana so important?”

Answer: “For four reasons!

1. It showed that Jesus did, and does, as His Blessed Mother requests!

2. “‘Jesus did this as the beginning of His signs at Cana in Galilee and so revealed His glory, and His disciples began to believe in Him.’

3. Jesus appreciated the difference between ‘good wine’ and bad.

4. Jesus was a ‘wine connoisseur’ with The Power to control the atomic and molecular structure of the ‘good wine’ He provided.”

~

Question 9: “What was the result?”

Answer: “A few years after The Miracle of Changing Water into Wine, Jesus changed wine into His Blood at The Last Supper! Then, after having said ‘If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.’ fourteen times, He ordained His First Catholic Bishops, and those Ordained in Living Link with Him, to also preside over The Miracle of Changing bread and wine into His Body and Blood.”

~

Question 10: “How do we know that?”

Answer: “Jesus gave His Disciples, His First Catholic Bishops, His ‘servers’, This Command: “‘Do this, in memory of Me.’ For 2,000 years, His ‘servants’, Catholic priests around the world, have been empowered to perform The Miracle of Jesus and give His ‘life’ to us Catholics!”

Every Miracle of Jesus connects to Cana. And to Mary, His Blessed Mother. She got Jesus started! In more ways than One!
