Just Do it
John 2:5
His mother saith unto the servants, Whatever, he saith unto you, do it.
Nike has a saying, "Just do it". I think they might have borrowed their catch phrase from Mary the mother of Jesus. Obeying God sometimes is the hardest thing to do as a believer. Sometimes in our lives we made wrong moves, wrong decisions based on the mere fact that we just did not do what God has told us to do. Just do it. Obedience is better than sacrifice. If you and I obeyed God in every situation we would always come out on top. God might not give us all of what we want but he will make sure he gives us all of what we need..
Mary in our text is speaking to the servants. This was the beginning of Jesus' many miracles. To be exact this was the first miracle that Jesus performs. Jesus turns water into wine after they had run out at a wedding. There are so many good nuggets in this text but I pitched my tent on what Mary echoes, "Whatever he says, do it. What we need to recognize in the text, Mary speaks to obedience.
The only point I am trying to make today is obey God. It might not always feel good but it is always the right thing to do. When you obey God it makes life so much easier. There is always going to be a struggle in doing what we want verses what God wants us to do. It so easy for us to operate in the flesh rather than to yield to the spirit. Scripture teaches us that if we acknowledge Him. He will direct our paths. Give yourself over to all always listening to God you will find out that every aspect of your life will always be better.
