Title: Just Do It
(S) cripture:
John 2:5 (NASB) His mother *said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”
(O) bservation:
Mary may not have understood everything, but she did know Jesus’ true identity. I think she wanted others to know his true identity, too. Her command is simple, “Whatever Jesus says, Do It”
(A) pplication:
The sports equipment giant, Nike, had “Just Do It” as a slogan. Many thought it was original but now you know it was not. Long before Nike, Mary spoke to some servants about Jesus and told them, “Whatever He says to you, do it.” This is a simple instruction to some servants that I think is good for me today. It is simple and yet we so often ignore it to do what we want to do. Today I want to do what Jesus tells me to do. I will seek to do all you tell me to do. These words are simple to say and hear but difficult to live out.
(P) rayer:
Lord, I confess when I have not been obedient. Today I want to start fresh and obey you completely. Give me the grace and strength to follow through. Amen
