Jesus in Cana turns the waters into wine. In the courts of Ozymandius he turned the waters into blood.
Jesus connects with us. When we rejoice he rejoices with us. When we suffer, he suffers with us, even to the shedding of his own blood.
We are easily overcome by despair, but Jesus' capacity for sitting with us and suffering with us is as endless as the Nile river, continually replenished from its eternal source.
On the other side of that suffering, how much more will he celebrate as we enter into the joy of the Lord!
