On Easter Sunday, Jesus appeared to His disciples when Thomas was absent.  In joy, the disciples told Thomas: “We have seen the Lord!”  Their witness was true, even though Thomas doubted at first.

Just because someone does not believe our witness to Jesus as our Lord and Savior should not discourage us from sharing our faith.  Sharing is both our challenge and our privilege. Changing hearts is God’s work.  And thanks be to God, we have a patient and compassionate Savior who welcomes and encourages us in our doubts to “poke and prod” and says, “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe!”
