Light Reflection-John 2:11 Miracles of Jesus

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Light Reflection is from John 2:11.

What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

The glory of God is a light that draws people to faith and worship. One of the ways Jesus revealed His glory was through signs and miracles.

A miracle is an extraordinary event that cannot be explained by natural or scientific laws. Jesus healed people instantly from sickness. He raised the dead. He walked on water. He fed 5,000 people from five loaves and two fish. In Cana of Galilee, Jesus turned water into wine at a wedding banquet. This miracle led His disciples to put their faith in Jesus.

The miracles of Jesus were written for our benefit too.  John 20:30 and 31 says, “Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”

This Light Reflection inspires us to believe in the miracles of Jesus in the Year to Shine.
