Why is that so hard to remember? And, yes, the joy of realizing He enjoys a good party!

Ask Me and I will change it into extraordinary, beyond your wildest imagination possibilities.” You are so right! Thank you, Jean, for the fresh insight from this familiar story.

It is such a remarkable thing–the way our Lord chose the ordinary–indeed, made it sacred. How he does…turns all my water moments into wine.

Yes it is a wonderful thought! Thanks for stopping by Renee

Thank you
Mia
