Jesus the obedient son

I could just bet that Jesus going anywhere or doing anything without the consent of his mother Mary ended when he told her at the age of twelve after being lost for three days, Luke 2:41-52 “Why were you searching for me?” he asked. “Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?”

To everyone who’s very faithful would see his saying as being very powerful which it is, but to a worried loving mother (parent) I don’t care if you’re Divinity that action especially as a young child needs to be address with discipline of correction so it will never happen again, sorry, but not sorry!

Now at the wedding of Cana John 2:1-12 Mary told Jesus they were out of wine. Jesus then said to her ” my hour has not yet come.” Then Mary said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.” Jesus without arguments did according to what his mother asked. He saw the water jars and told the servants to fill it with water.

Mary not even for a moment did she in anyways seemed to be concerned that Jesus wasn’t going to comply. Jesus is now matured, but like an innocent child, did what he was told by his mother. In all this Mary proved to us that she was well aware of Jesus’s abilities ever since the finding of him in the temple at twelve, after being lost for three days. I thought was Mary then being prepared by God for Jesus destiny. He was going to be dead for three days then resurrected, as he was lost and after three days found.

Mary knew Jesus was gifted and definitely anointed and could do all sorts of miracles, otherwise she wouldn’t of told Jesus about the wine. She was teaching him how and when to use his gift in helping others. Mary wasn’t the hostess of the wedding was she? Nor was it mention if it was family, friend, or acquaintance wedding. If anything we saw her personality, her care and concern for others why God may have chosen her to be Jesus mother and not just the fact she was a virgin.
