In the past week with my study and prayer, I had a chance to consider John's account of the Wedding at Cana and the miracle of Jesus there. This verse stuck with me at the end of it.
This act in Cana of Galilee was the first sign Jesus gave, the first glimpse of his glory. And his disciples believed in him. -John 2:11
John's gospel shares 7 miraculous signs of who Jesus is and what Jesus can do. This is the first of the miracles that Jesus does in the lives of the disciples and the people at Cana get to witness it.
We are continuing to travel through a season that has put us through more challenges, hurdles, crisis, and experiences in one year than we may have experienced in any other season. The miracles of Jesus are signs that remind us that Jesus does extraordinary with ordinary. Jesus is with us in the midst of our crisis and challenges.
So what kinds of miracles are you praying for in your life today? Are they Emotional? Relational? Health? Family?
Can you be open to the miracles and signs that point us to Jesus? Do you sometimes try to find a rationale reason for something happening even though if you think about it further you may realize this was a miracle in your life and a gift from God?
These lyrics from this song came to mind as I considered this scripture and the miracles of Jesus.
You are here, moving in our midst
I worship You, I worship You
You are here, working in this place
I worship You, I worship You
You are Way maker, miracle worker, promise keeper
Light in the darkness
My God, that is who You are
You are here, touching every heart
You are here, healing every heart
You're turning lives around
You are here, oh, turning lives around
You mended every heart
(Way Maker- Leeland)
