Tis_Bearself,
re: “It’s fairly obvious given the context of the situation that when she went to Him and said ‘They have no wine’, she wasn’t just making idle conversation.”

Then ColorMomma should have said that and not “She asked Him to turn water into wine”.
 
twf,
re: “Appeared yes. But Our Lady was the first to SHARE in the resurrection and be glorified herself.”

What scripture do you have which says that?
 
Revelation 11:19 to 12:6 is a good one…contemplate what the Ark of the Covenant means in the context of the New Covenant ;).

But of course…Catholics don’t consider Scripture to be the sole source of truth. In fact, Scripture itself teaches that it is NOT the sole source of truth:
Therefore, brethren, stand fast; and hold the traditions which you have learned, whether by word, or by our epistle. (2 Thes. 2:15).
 
We say in the Eastern Rite…
It is truly right to bless you oh God bearing one! Forever blessed and Immaculate, Mother of our God! More honorable than the Cheribum and beyond compare more glorious than the Seraphim! Ever a virgin you gave birth to God the Word! Oh true Mother of God we magnify you!
 
Mary has Suffered united with her Son 1 Corinthians 6:17 But anyone united to the Lord becomes one spirit with him.Spiritual Martyrdom a sword shall pierce your heart.

Mother Mary being the Mother of God, How much more powerful will be, her intercession before God .AS she was born without original sin and she was sinless throughout her life, who bore sufferings, being Holy, assumed into Heaven Body and Soul ,in John 2:2-5 Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. 3 When the wine gave out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” 4 And Jesus said to her, “Woman, what concern is that to you and to me? My hour has not yet come.” 5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.” .Thus even thought it was not the appointed time and note many places in the Bible Jesus done everything on the appointed time as per the will of God, but Through her intercession she quickened the miracle and everyone’s surprise and everyone glorified Jesus and they believed John 2:11 Jesus did this, the first of his signs, in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
 
If Enoch and Elijah who were born sinners and led a life of penance, but yet was assumed into Heaven, How much more the Mother of God born without the original sin and lived a holy life, will she not be in the heaven praying for all of us Luke 1:37For nothing will be impossible with God.”. Luke 1:45 And blessed is she who believed that there would be[a] a fulfillment of what was spoken to her by the Lord.” Psalms 118:23 This is the Lord’s doing, it is marvelous in our eyes. Hope you find the Truth.
 
Well she is the MOTHER OF GOD
And co redemptris
