Day 11. "Both Jesus and his disciples were invited to the wedding." - John 2:2

Jesus was invited to a wedding. He wasn't invited because they knew he was the Savior. He just happened to know the couple and they invited him. This is all said to show that Jesus was just an average person in their world. They liked him for who he was, not because they knew he was the son of God. I think this is important. There is a saying that it isn't what you know but who you know. Can you imagine if the people around him knew he was the son of God? How differently he would have been treated when he was growing up. He needed to be one of us for us to truly appreciate him and what he did for us when he died on the cross. He was a son, a brother, a friend. These people loved him for who he was as a person, not because he was the son of God. Really pretty interesting when you think about it!
