2nd Sunday of Ordinary Time

 The First Miracle


If you could perform any miracle what would it be?

Would you heal the sick?

Feed the hungry ?

Raise the dead?


The first miracle that Jesus performed was to make more wine!

To change water into wine so that the wedding feast could continue. 


Of all the miracles He could have performed why this one?


Because He came to restore the union of God with Man. 


There was a wedding a Cana;

Where a bride and groom promised to be together forever. 


In a wedding the bride and groom make a covenant to be true to one another 

Faithful to another. 

To love and honor one another till death. 


This union of bride and groom represents

the union Of God and Humanity. 


At Sinai, God and humanity 

Made a covenant to be true to one another;

Faithful to one another 

And to love and honor forever. 


Unfortunately humanity has not kept its promises. 

We have not always been true or Faithful. 

We have not always loved God and honored Him. 


So the Son of God became human to renew and restore the Covenant between God and Humanity. 


In Jesus one human being has been true and faithful;

Has loved and honored God till death. 


And the wedding feast of Cana is the beginning of the renewal of the Marriage Covenant between God and Humanity 

 

Where in Heaven God and Humanity will forever be united in one Eternal Wedding Feast of Love.
