I hope you understand this about life: It’s often when we run out that Christ begins. We don’t always feel God’s presence. But he’s here! It’s often when we feel like we have nothing left that Christ begins to make his presence felt. Because that’s when grace kicks in. What’s grace? God’s undeserved love. Before Jesus did his first miracle, he let it become an emergency. He let all other solutions get tried first. That’s often how God teaches us about his grace. No one can receive God’s grace who hasn’t run out. Of goodness. Of strength. Of self-righteousness. When we run out, Christ begins. I hope you can listen to this sermon about Jesus’ first miracle—changing water into wine. Jesus loves you!
