Loving Jesus very much, Mary loved all things that touched Jesus, and looked with maternal solicitude on what concerned him. At the wedding of Cana, where Jesus was in the midst of his disciples, Mary perceives that wine is lacking; it was something necessary only by custom; what does matter is that the heart of this good mother is moved by it and the vivacity of her desires obtains more than a miracle, since she advances in a way the moment of redemption. The seemingly cold response which was a gain for her humility does not disconcert her; she was made to instruct us.
