JOHN 2 1-12

   🍃🕊️01/04 - GospeL Verses 🍃🕊️

1 - On the next day, the third day (says John, John’s third day following, and with Jesus) there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2 Jesus and his disciples were invited to the wedding as well. 3 When the wine ran out, Mary said to him, “They have run out of wine.” 4 And Jesus said, “Woman? What’s that have to do with me, my hour has not yet come.” 5 Mary said to those serving, “Do whatever he tells you to.” 6 There were six large stone water jars sitting there for the Jewish practice of purification {frequent washing}, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. 7 Jesus said to them, “Fill the jars with water.” And so they filled them, right up to the brim. 8 And Jesus said, “Now draw some out and take it to the manager of the banquet.” And so they did. 9 When the manager tasted the water that was now wine, he didn’t know where it came from, though the ones who had drawn it knew, he called for the bridegroom, 10 and said to him, “Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drank freely, then they bring out the poor wine! But you have kept the best wine until now!” 11 This was a first of Jesus’ signs (we saw him do) at Cana in Galilee, and we witnessed his glory. And they believed in him.

     12 After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother and brothers and disciples. And they stayed there for a few days.
