John 2:1-2
Chapter 2
Jesus Changes Water to Wine
1On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus' mother was there,
There are two weddings in the Bible that much emphasis is given to: Adam and Eve's and the couple mentioned in John 2. God was important in both: He officiated the first marriage and saved the second one. John records that there was a wedding on the third day, and Jesus and His crew were invited. Not only was He invited to the wedding, but He was called to the reception. Amazing! It was not enough for God to bless the wedding; He was needed to bless the party as well. Joyful is the party where God dances. Not only was Christ invited, but His disciples received RSVPs as well. If God were to show up, they wanted everything God brings. If you're married, did you invite God to the wedding? You probably did, but did you also invite Him to the reception? The honeymoon? Monday morning at work? Wednesday night dinner? If you want Him to be God, let Him be God every day. Follow the example of this couple; invite all that God has to offer. Do not invite the Power of God but leave out the meekness of God. Do not invite the Protection of God but forget the Love of God. Invite the Savior. Invite the Savior's humbleness. Invite His Peace. Call for His Wisdom. Text message His Favor. Email His Forgiveness. God, bring the whole crew!

Hebrews 13:4
4Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
The world can say what it wants; God honors marriage. Not only does He honor it; He loves it. What God loves and honors, He blesses. He not only blessed the marriage; He blessed the bedroom. Believe it or not, there is no guilt or sin in sex! It is WHEN and with WHOM we have sex with that makes it sinful. The bedroom is undefiled, untainted, and sacred. The love that is expressed physically between husband and wife is simply a sign of the passion that burns spiritually.
