Jesus loves turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. He does it all the time. No wonder then, that His very first miracle was turning plain water into fine wine, at a wedding.
“Jesus said to the servants, ‘Fill the jars with water’; so they filled them to the brim.Then he told them, ‘Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.” - John 2:7-8
The master tastes the wine of course, and remarks on how good it is. He has no idea just how extraordinary that wine really is, or where it came from!
Have you ever noticed just how Jesus did it? Have you spotted what He didn’t do?
This was a miracle in which the servants did all the work, and all Jesus did was speak. Incredible! Right from the beginning Jesus shows us that He wants us, people like you and me, to be involved in changing the ordinary to the extraordinary! All we have to do is listen and respond to whatever He tells us to do.
Today, when you’re faced with the ordinary tasks ahead, remember that God has an amazing plan to use you to transform the world around you to be extraordinary!
Ask Him to speak, and listen carefully to what He tells you. The water’s in your hands. What can you do with it?
