In John 2:1 – 10, we see the validation that we can commit God to act as Mary did Jesus. Let us therefore see the following points from this scriptural passage:
Verse 2: Jesus was present but yet, Mary had to engage Him. We as believers suffer, not because we do not know God or because He isn’t there with us and for us; but because we majorly do not engage/involve Him. We do not actively involve Him in our daily activities, our decisions (minor and major), life circumstances and challenges which have eventually led to a continuous lifestyle of struggles and shame. It is not enough that we have Christ; we MUST fully engage Him in all areas of our lives.
Verse 3: “the act of coming”…in this Bible passage, Jesus was there, he was actually present when the wine finished. His presence did not literally prevent the wine from getting finished. Jesus was there and yet the wine finished; he was also there in the boat with his disciples when the storm arose. This leaves us with the responsibility of calling/coming to God for help at any time we are faced with unpleasant situations; as He has promised to answer us when we call on Him (Jem33:3).
