Jesus did this, the first of his signs, in Cana of Galilee.
He revealed his glory, and his disciples believed in him..
After this, he went down to Capernaum,
together with his mother, his brothers,
and his disciples,
and they stayed there only a few days.
John 2:11-12 CSB
From miracle to, well, the everyday...I wonder what the conversation was about on that journey...there was no mistaking the miracle - 6 jars at 100 litres each, 600 litres of the finest wine.
The disciples believed in Jesus. Would they be trying to get more understanding of what this all means? Jesus is who he says he is, and he has transformational power.
Did they start to think about who will be most important and be able to use this power?
Was Judas among the disciples who believed in Jesus that day?
Was Jesus talking to his Mum about putting him in an awkward situation?
And where is Joseph?
Does anyone know what happened to Jesus earthly Dad?
Maybe Jesus already knows the grief of losing his Dad.
From the miracle to the ordinary.
The glimpse of the goodness and abundance of what our God envisioned the Kingdom to be, created it to be.
The glimpse of the future hope, that the best is yet to come.
Most importantly, a glimpse at the divine nature of Jesus, who he is, is revealed.

Joseph replied..."Dont you see, you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my good, as you see all around you right now - life for many people..." Genesis 50:19-20 MSG The view from the drone. The different perspective. "God has been at work in my life despite, in fact within the hatred that you had towards me. Even though I couldn't always see it, I kept trusting Him, even when He was silent, when all hope seemed lost... God was at work... Can you see that now?" #faith #faithinthedark
Genesis 15.8-18.ESV But he said O Lord God , how am I to know that I shall possess it? ...When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram... March 15 was the last day we looked at Abram's story...he was questioning God and this is God's response...sacrifices and smoke and fire and a covenant...a promise... Isn't that what we crave for sometimes? God, if only you'd just show me smoke & fire, a burning bush a sign, miracle, healing...then all my questions would disappear...all my doubts would be gone... 2moro we'll see Abram's response but I think God values our faith in spite of our questions and doubts. That we choose Him anyway #faith
Psalm 42.1-11.nlt As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God... I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before him? O God my rock l cry, Why have you forgotten me? Why must I wander around in grief, oppressed by my enemies? Their taunts break my bones. They scoff, Where is this God of yours? Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again - my Savior and my God! That song "as the deer pants for the water..." seems almost nice, but it's not...it's part of a cry of anguish, of hurt, of despair...of God not giving an answer...yet...through all that...again and again he says I'll put my hope in God! #choose #hope #hopeunshaken
