—John 20:19, 24-29
by: Cheri Appel.
Can you imagine it? After Jesus their beloved leader was killed, the disciples excitedly told Thomas they had seen Him alive! Yet Thomas did not believe the very people he had lived with for three years! Eight days later, when Thomas was with the others in a closed room, Jesus appeared again, just as He had before. How embarrassing to have an all-knowing God call to you and turn your doubting questions into commands to believe. Jesus’ last statement continues to clarify doubt in our lives: “Blessed are they who did not see and yet, believed” (v.29). What does it take for you to believe?
