Sign One – Transformation

June 28, 2018 by Chris Gribble

Where does amazing start?
The sign, a miracle, arriving
Love waiting to care, his heartache
Here from the beginning
Needed since we listened to
and believed a lie and death came.
Celebration, waiting for life,
The right moment coming
A miracle beginning, here.
No one expected it to be now
This perfect time
and it nearly was missed
By everyone – except a mother
Who listened and obeyed.

So, now the best waited
For eternity to begin creating
Who knew, Who’d a thought
That it would be at a wedding
In a tiny village, Cana of all places!
Gathered to celebrate, not realising
The groom was not invited
But, here he is, creating,
One person listened, she knew,
Here is the beginning of hope,
The sign is among us, She says,
watch, listen and follow.

What did the water know?
Transformation into wine
Isn’t easy, first crushed
Then the outpoured juice
Waits, for the transformation.
And, thankfully it came
Disaster averted, for now,
Because, the best was coming,
When bruised and broken,
The sign of hope, is crushed
Disaster crowded in loudly,
Sleepless nights, not knowing
resurrection was arriving,
Waiting for the right time
Calling to believe and follow
Transforming, now.
