2nd Sunday after Epiphany 2024
The Magi had open minds and were seeking the truth.  They followed the star and received Christ into their hearts.  Unlike God’s revelation to the Magi or St. John the Baptist, the wedding feast was a manifestation of Christ’s divinity to everyone.  In the divine plan, God did not change His mind but made the miracle at Cana dependent on the Blessed Mother’s request.  The Virgin Mary was sensitive to the interests of the host of the feast, and her interest is carried over to each one of us.  The water turning into wine was a prefiguring of Transubstantiation.
