Marriage Feast

And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:

And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.

And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.

Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.

Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.

When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

                                                                        (John 2:1-10 KJV)

Jesus' first miracle was at a wedding celebration. When they ran out of celebratory wine he turned water into very good wine for the people. The man in charge of the feast tasted it and said: "Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now." 

Jesus provided the best wine to celebrate with. That is how a relationship with Jesus goes as well. When we receive the bridegroom, Jesus, into our lives we are receiving the best! 

Jesus began his ministry by turning water into wine for the wedding feast. On the night in which he was betrayed he took the cup of wine and said:  "this cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me." (1 Cor 11:25)

Taste and see that the Lord is good as you look to the day when we will celebrate at the marriage feast of the lamb! (Rev 19:6-9)
