Lesson 13~ Jesus' first miracle

John 2:1-11


Two days later, Jesus, his Mother, Mary and his followers went to a wedding in Cana of Galilee. While they were there, the wedding ran out of wine, as a wedding reception lasted for days. It was a disgrace to run out of wine at a wedding. So,  Jesus' Mother Mary went to him and told him of this for I believe she knew that he understood that he had the ablitity to do something about it. Jesus told her that it was not yet time for him to start doing miracles publicy. Mary did not argue with Jesus, instead she went to the servants and told them to do whatever Jesus told them to do and left.


The room they were in had 6 stone water jars that could hold around 30 gallons. Jesus told the servants to fill the jars up with water and take it to the man who put the wedding together. And they did.


When the man had tasted the water  that had turned into wine, he was glad. For the Wine was the best wine that had been served for the whole wedding!


This was the first miracle that Jesus did. His followers saw it, believed in Jesus and followed him.
