Second Sunday of Ordinary Time

We are always challenged to explore our human potentialities. For those who thirst to fully grasp life itself, it is not only about living fully or living every inch and moment and savouring the benefits of life. Instead, it is about what I could have done for my community, society and global humanity. Life for those who wish to explore its fullness, it is not an internal movement about savouring it to the core of it but expanding it to others. It is about passing on the spark! The ministry of Jesus in Cana is the first moment where Jesus begins to set the spark of the glory of God. With this spark that began to radiate from Galilee, it would later move to Jerusalem, and thereafter would radiate the whole of nation. Mary was indeed instrumental in beginning this spark. In our lives too, there will be someone, they may or may not be special but instrumental in initiating the work of God within us.
