Devotion:
Read John 2:1-11.
Jesus’ mother wanted him to rescue a young couple from embarrassment at their wedding. Though initially reluctant to do so, he granted her desire. It’s another example of God’s willingness to engage us in dialogue and relationship. Jesus valued the wedding festivities because it involved people and Jesus came to be with people. Jesus is concerned about us because we are his children and his friends.
We tend to look everywhere but to God for excitement and meaning. For some reason we expect God to be dull but just the opposite is true. Why wait until everything else runs out before trusting God? Why save the best until last?
Our mission can often be accomplished in joyous times of celebration with others. Bring balance to your life by bringing Jesus into times of pleasure as well as times of work.
Personal Worship Option:
How long has it been since you had a good laugh? A hilarious time of fun with Christian friends? Jesus wants us to rejoice and enjoy life. Share that joy with others. Celebrate!
