The First Miracle

Since Sunday was our selected day to celebrate the last Miracle of Jesus on earth, specifically raising Himself from the dead, I thought I'd take a moment to mention His first miracle. According to the gospel of John, the first miracle in Christs' ministry was turning water into wine.  The event was a wedding.  Consider this, it was traditional to celebrate such festivities with wine, but what do we have going on here?  I don't think it was at all a coincidence that they attended a wedding that ran out of wine, I think it was all in the Fathers plan and for good reason. Jesus had just gathered His disciples together and was prepared to make His presence known to the world.  The King had come at last, The Bridegroom was here, and this was a celebration of a long awated and a one time in history event, the arrival of the Bridegroom of mankind, the Fathers only Son.  Imagine, only a few people present at this wedding ceremony even knew what the real ceremony was about, and who supplied the wine.  Dano
