The Power to know the True God
Saturday after Christmas Octave
1 Jn 5: 14-21; Jn 2: 1-11
The Son of God has come to give us the power to know the True God. We will know only when we are open to the revelation of God. Only when we are open and receptive can that revelation make any difference. Only because the wine ran out, they were able to taste the best of wine ever made. Only because there were six empty jars they were able fill them in order to get new wine made from mere water. Only because they stood helpless the wedding party had the privilege to witness the first of miracles that Jesus performed. Only because Jesus heeded in obedience to the request of his beloved mother, the disciples found the true messiah in him. The Son of God has come to give us the power to know God, but only if we are open and receptive, we can truly behold the revelation. If not, we will miss the entire message as did the majority of Jews in Jesus' time.
