My Time Is Not Yet Come

Scripture: Three days later there was a wedding in the town of Cana in the country of Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there. Jesus and His followers were asked to come to the wedding. When the wine was all gone, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no more wine.” Jesus said to her, “Woman, what is that to you and to Me. It is not time for Me to work yet.” His mother said to the helpers, “Do whatever He says.”

Six stone water jars were there. Each one held about one-half barrel of water. These water jars were used in the Jewish worship of washing. Jesus said to the helpers, “Fill the jars with water.” They filled them to the top. Then He said, “Take some out and give it to the head man who is caring for the people.” They took some to him. The head man tasted the water that had become wine. He did not know where it came from but the helpers who took it to him knew. He called the man who had just been married. The head man said to him, “Everyone puts out his best wine first. After people have had much to drink, he puts out the wine that is not so good. You have kept the good wine until now!”

This was the first powerful work Jesus did. It was done in Cana of Galilee where He showed His power. His followers put their trust in Him. (John 2:1-11)
