At a wedding, the wine did run dry
But Jesus turned water to wine, oh my!
The guests were amazed
At the wine he had raised
Proving his power from on high

Potential actions to take in response

One practical way to respond to the teaching of John 2.1-11 is to reflect on the concept of obedience and faithfulness to God’s will. In this passage, Jesus performs his first miracle at the wedding in Cana by turning water into wine. The servants obeyed Jesus’ instructions to fill the jars with water, and their faithfulness resulted in a miraculous transformation.

We can apply this lesson to our own lives by being obedient to God’s commands and trusting in His plan for us. Just as the servants followed Jesus’ directions without fully understanding the outcome, we should also be willing to trust and obey God even when we don’t see the immediate results. This requires a deep sense of faith and reliance on God’s wisdom and timing.

Additionally, we can also learn from Mary’s actions in this passage. She recognized the need at the wedding and brought it to Jesus’ attention. We can follow her example by bringing our needs and concerns to Jesus in prayer and seeking his guidance and provision.

Overall, responding to this teaching involves cultivating a mindset of obedience, faithfulness, and surrender to God’s will in our daily lives.
