Jesus Weeding Cana In Galalilee

In John 2: 1-12, we find that on the mother of Jesus has been invited to a weeding Cana in Galilee. Jesus and his disciples were both also invited to the weeding. Jesus and the mother of Jesus are both at the weeding when the wine runs out. This is of course a large issue as every weeding needs wine. The mother of Jesus tells them that there is no more wine and this was her way of telling Jesus to fix this the problem in some way. Jesus then states that his time has not come, “O woman, what have you to do with me? My hour has not yet come.”, however Jesus does end up doing something about the problem and thus he starts his mission on the request of his mother.
