| It occurred to me this morning that if Jesus had never performed a miracle before, then why would Mary even think to consult Him about the need for wine?Was there something in his past (I know there are supposed gospels of the childhood of Jesus) that made her assured that He could do this?I know that it speaks of this being the beginning of miracles, but could that mean the miracles that accompanied His public ministry? |

| She didn't call on Him to perform a miracle. She just knew that He would know how to address the situation, likely as a result of the wisdom of God she had seen in His life (cf. Luke 2:52 |

| Luke 1:26Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin's name was Mary.28 And having come in, the angel said to her, Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!29 But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was.30 Then the angel said to her, Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS.32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David.33 And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there will be no end.34 Then Mary said to the angel, How can this be, since I do not know a man?35 And the angel answered and said to her, The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, t |

| Yes, she knew that. But was this the first time she'd ever ASKED him to intervene? Surely in those 30 years, there had been some times that she would have liked Him to have done something, right?If she had, and if He had said no every time, well, it would be unique that she asked Him yet again. |

| I agree with this. Mary was with His family when they came to get Jesus, thinking He was beside Himself. Jesus also said to her in the passage that His time was not yet come |

| It was the first.I am sure Mary was in tune with her son - and she knew his ministry was about to begin - which would include miracles.I don't think she knew what he was going to do.Perhaps she also wanted some non alcoholic wine - and knew Jesus was the right guy to get that job done.Regardless - it was the first miracle if you believe the Bible |

| It was his first miracle and mine too. Our pastor refused to drink any wine unless someone turned water to wine instantly. The next Sunday in the morning service I did it. True to his word he took a sip in front of his congregation. |
