The Vineyard
I am the vine; you
are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much
fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. – John 15:5
John
2:1-12
- Jesus miraculously replaces the water in the six stone water
jars, water that was used with purification, with wine. What does wine represent to us as
Christians? What point is Jesus making here?
- How does Jesus turn water into wine? What is so miraculous about turning water
into wine?
- What is it about Jesus’ words that give them power? How can the words of Jesus have power in our
life?
- The stewards are instructed to draw out the wine, and take it to
others. How can we draw out the wine of
Jesus and offer it to others?
- This
is the first passage in John where Jesus performs a sign that reveals His
glory. How do Jesus’ actions here reveal
something about who He is?
Pray:
- As
our teachers and children return to school this coming week, I would encourage
you to offer up a prayer on their behalf.
- Pray
that our teachers may reflect the love of Christ to the children that they
teach, particularly those most in need of being loved. Pray also that God will use their talents to
educate our children.
- Pray
that our children will love others as they should, and set good examples of how
followers of Christ should act. Pray
that they will resist temptation, and that their efforts to learn will be
fruitful.
