1-12節--神的兒子參加婚筵

約翰福音 第2章

耶穌在世的時候，經常到人們的家中作客共膳。這天，祂來到一個婚筵。婚筵是一個神聖而喜慶的場合，這回有基督的親臨，當然是喜上加喜了。

主耶穌當然有能力滿足我們的需要，可是，祂認為適合滿足那需要的時間，往往與我們所想的不同。耶穌對母親馬利亞所說的話，正好證明這點；祂的話其實是要指出：「我希望妳明白，我現在要做的是父神的工作；除非是祂吩咐我去做，否則我甚麼也不能行」。祂說完這句話之後的片刻，可能就立即以行動來滿足了人的需要；可是，我們得留意，祂做任何事情之前都必須先獲得父神的允准。我們是否也懂得像祂一樣去等候神呢？

耶穌怎樣吩咐僕人(7節)？祂要僕人作些甚麼？祂要他們聽從祂的指示去做。除非僕人照祂的吩咐「把缸倒滿了水」，否則祂便不能作成祂的工作。當時的水缸，大約可盛20加侖的食水；換言之，僕人的任務相當繁重，然而他們卻依從吩咐去做。

不僅如此，還要有信心的一步。除了把缸倒滿水之外，耶穌還吩咐僕人做些甚麼？「現在可以舀出來，送給管筵席的」。他們只是把水倒進缸裡啊！他們把水舀給管筵席的人，豈不是貽笑大方？但馬利亞卻曾經吩咐他們說：「他告訴你們甚麼，你們就作甚麼」。於是，他們踏出信心的一步，把水舀出來--它竟然已經變成酒了，而且比先前擺上的酒更好哩！

這不是基督慣常採用的行事方式嗎？你曾親身經驗過嗎？你今天在基督裡所經歷的，是否比以前更豐盛呢？

反思：

有甚麼事情，是基督曾經吩咐你去做，但你仍然未動手去做的呢？

Gods Son at a Wedding

Bible Reading: John 2:1-12

When Jesus was here on earth, he was often found in peoples homes, or eating with a family. Here he is attending a wedding. A wedding is a scared hour, a happy hour but it can be made even happier by the presence of Christ.
The Lord Jesus is always able to meet our needs, but his time to do so is often far different from ours. What Jesus said to Mary shows this - I want you to realise that I am on my Fathers business now and I cannot do anything until he tells me. It may have only been a little while before he did act, but he would not do anything until his Father allowed him. Have we learned to wait for God like that?

What did Jesus say? (v.7). What did he ask for? Obedient service. He did nothing more until the servants had done what he said - Fill the waterpots. Each pot would have held up to 20 gallons. What a task he gave them! But they did what he said.

But there was one more thing - a step of faith. What else did Jesus tell them to do? Take a cup of the wine to the man in charge of the wedding feast. But it was only water they put into the pots. They would be foolish to take water to the man in charge. But what had Mary said? Whatever he tells you, you do it. They took the step of faith. They dipped out a cup of water - and now it was wine! And it was better than what they had before!

Isnt it the way Christ always works? Havent you found it so? Is your experience of Christ richer today than it was before.

A Question for Today:

Is Christ waiting on you to do something he has asked you to do?
