⁵ His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”

⁶ Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.^[b]

⁷ Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.

⁸ Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.”

They did so, ⁹ and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside ¹⁰ and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”

¹¹ What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
This passage influenced Catherine McAuley to help others in need. 

'My God, I am yours for time and eternity. 
Teach me to cast myself entirely 
into the arms of your loving Providence 
with a lively, unlimited confidence in your compassionate, tender pity. 
Grant, O most merciful Redeemer, 
That whatever you ordain or permit may be acceptable to me. 
Take from my heart all painful anxiety; 
let nothing sadden me but sin, 
nothing delight me but the hope of coming to the possession of You 
my God and my all, in your everlasting kingdom.

Amen. '
This prayer expresses her appreciation to God and what he has done for the world.
