This morning I concelebrated Eucharist in my native parish parish priest and he preached an inspiring homily. He touched just one or two aspects of the Gospel narrations. The dryness that sets in our human life due many reasons and some of the reasons are simple and avoidable Dryness brings in our human life elements which are divisive and destruction for oneself and others. when there is no life or no life is lived then comes in broken relationships, we tend to ignore messages of life, we tend to criticize and spoil the names of the others.
Dryness can bring in disinteredness in spiritual life. We have no communication with the Divine because in human life there is no desire for anything divine but desire for worldly things...which increases our dryness ....
When there is fullness of life then we live a serene and happy life. We relate well to the others and God in very normal way. When life is full of divine things then dryness will never come closer to us but we will try to be ever green and make others lives fruitful too.
At the wedding Feast Mother Mary has tremendous faith and confidence in her son...she knows that prayer and request from the sincere heart would be heard.....Jesus works the first sign ...sign that showed that much more greater going to come....the kingdom of peace and goodwill....he turned water into wine.....the family where the wedding is taking place are unaware of the running short of the wine...Mother Mary sees it....she wants to protect the family from shame....
We are like empty jars which hold or contain no water....due to drynes we lose touch with everything and everyone....our lives need to be re-filed with graces and blessings...fresh wine to bring in cheer ..
