God's grace can work little miracles in marriages today
by Sister Agnes Fischer
Thanks to the miracle of Jesus at the wedding feast at Cana, his disciples believed.
Thanks to the “miracles” in Christian marriages, we believe.
- The miracle of love that doesn’t turn water into wine, but human selfishness into paternal, maternal and conjugal love.
- The miracle that turns a couple into co-creators with the Father, co-redeemers with the Son and co-consolers with the Holy Spirit.
- The miracle of love and pardon so that the wedding wine never runs out.
- The miracle of journeying together to the end, rejoicing in the fruits of their love.
All these miracles can be ours when we combine the “water” of our efforts with the “wine” of God’s grace.
Beautiful words. I love the co-creators phrase. The trinity does play a huge role in our marriage. I just read this to my husband of 33 years. Thank you.
