Therefore I exhort you, be imitators of me

 Good morning. Now there were 6 stone waterpots set there for the Jewish custom of purification, containing 20 or 30 gallons each. My Bible says that Jews became ceremonially defiled during the normal circumstances of daily life, and were cleansed by pouring water over the hands. Jesus told the servants to fill the water pots with water. They filled them up to the brim. That means that there was somewhere between 120 and 180 gallons of water. He then told them to draw some out and take it to the head waiter. I have no idea what type of vessel they carried the water in. I say that because I don’t know when it became evident that it was no longer water. Did it happen as they carried it, or when the head waiter tasted it? The headwaiter called the bridegroom. Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people have drunk freely, then he serves the poor wine; but you have kept the good wine until now. Have you ever wondered what the servants were thinking? The headwaiter did not know that the water had been changed to wine; but the servants did. Also, God doesn’t make junk! It was the best. This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him. Remember that they had between 120 and 180 gallons of wine. Did they drink all of it? Or perhaps there was a lot left over as a gift for the couple. This is not the way most of us would have done it. We would have liked to have done a most spectacular miracle than this - one that everyone would notice. Then Jesus, His mother, brothers, and disciples all went down to Capernaum. Father thank You that You perform miracles even in the most mundane circumstances. Perform one now for the reader.
