Jesus said, 'I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me'
John 14:6
This is the new memory verse for the children, which means that June had already passed. That's rather quick, isn't it? As the day draws closer, I'm filled with trepidation and apprehension. And of course, fear as well. The fear that history will repeat itself. But I guess there's no point worrying is there?
I'm having a terrible headache right now. I thought I could last throughout the day but by lunch time, I was feeling too sick to carry on and I did not want to relate the wrong information to the callers. I guessed I won't be going to work tomorrow too. Oh well, I needed the rest anyway. The past few weeks have been rather tiring, with meetings week after week, countless rejections and the disappointment that follows. I wished that at the end of it all, I can say that all these has been worth it.
And He turns water into wine...
Yesterday, the children were taught on how Jesus turns water into wine. Some might wonder what is the significance of this. I mean, a magician could turn water into wine. Yet to me, this little miracle shows something else altogether. It wasn't a magical feat and it wasn't Jesus showing off his prowess. Just when everyone thought that there was no more wine for the guests at the wedding banquet and the servant girls started panicking, Jesus told them to fill the wine jars with water. At that point, did the servant girls doubt him and maybe even thought that he was insane? Probably. But I can imagine the look on their faces when they poured out what they thought was water and it turned to wine. The feeling of elation, gratitude and awe.

When you thought that all else is lost, He turns water into wine.
Lord, if You're willing, I believe You can....
