John 2:5 – “His mother said to the servants, ‘Do whatever He tells you.’” What must Mary have thought when Jesus replied, “What does this have to do with Me?” But she knew this: whatever her Son said to do would be a blessing, so she knows what advice to give to the servants: Do whatever He tells you! That’s still good advice for us in every aspect of our lives — including in our generosity toward the Lord’s work in the church.
“No amount of scientific progress can defeat death. No political ruler can promise eternal life. Only Jesus can make and keep that promise. The promise of hope and life is ours to proclaim. It is the promise that a world without hope needs to hear. In Jesus we have hope for the future, the living hope of life in His presence forever.” Dr. Carol Geisler, Lutheran Hour Ministries - A Life Quote from Lutherans For Life www.lutheransforlife.org
