Joby Martin // Bringing Our Anxieties to Jesus

The first of Jesus's miraculous signs offers profound insights on bringing our needs to God, regardless of how small they may seem.

• Jesus performs His first miracle at a wedding in Cana by turning water into wine
• Running out of wine at a first-century wedding would have brought severe social shame to the bridegroom
• Mary approaches Jesus with this problem despite Him having performed no previous miracles
• Mary's actions demonstrate we should bring all our needs to Jesus, even temporary physical ones
• Paul instructs believers in Philippians 4:6-7 to counter anxiety by making requests known to God
• The promise isn't necessarily changed circumstances but "peace that surpasses all understanding"
• We're invited to cast our cares upon God because He cares for us
• Instead of carrying burdens that weigh us down, we should carry them to Jesus in prayer
