In this Second Sunday in Ordinary Time, the gospel presents to us a story that surely gives us a greater sense of hope and trust in God's providence. Jesus turned water into wine at the wedding in Cana upon Mary's plea. When we are experiencing times of confusion and hopelessness, let us remember that Jesus will turn our sorrow into joy, but we must obey Him as Mary said in the gospel, "do whatever he tells you".
May we keep an open heart as we listen to the words of the gospel, so that we can be filled with the gifs of the Holy Spirit and respond to Jesus's miracle of turning our water into wine with deeper faith and trust in His divine providence.
