The faith of the apostle Thomas: "My Lord and my God!"

The faith of the apostle Thomas: "My Lord and my God!"
Second Sunday of Easter
Gospel text
Jn 20:19-31
“Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.”
Gospel's Commentary
Today is the second time that risen Jesus visits the Apostles. In the first appearance, last Sunday, Thomas was not present and did not want to believe the disciples when they told him they had seen Jesus. Now, Jesus asks Thomas to reach out his hand, put it into his side and to stop doubting and believe. - I want to trust the words of those who saw Jesus: «My lord and my God». Thank you, Lord, for the patience of your heart.
