(DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY=Never doubt                                                                              

The Lord)

 

Today we have=DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY!=

MERCY for the entire world=Both BELIEVERS

And non-believers=NEVER DOUBT=the Lord!

 

And to ILLUSTRATE that point=we have the STORY

Of the APOSTLE Thomas=who is a little bit MORE=

Like us=that we care to admit=Thomas DOUBTS

The Lord=his story=IS our story

FOR OUR SAKES TOO!

“PUT your finger here=and SEE my hands=and bring

Your hand=and put it into MY SIDE=and do not

Be unbelieving=BUT BELIEVE”                                                                                                 John 20:27

 

“Do NOT be unbelievers=BUT BELIEVE”

What a QUOTE=from our Jesus=What a LESSON

For us all=THROUGH the story of Thomas=on

DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY=For our sakes too!=NEVER

Doubt the Lord=or our Holy Father God!

 

“Immediately=Jesus reaches out his hand=and

Caught him=’You of little faith’=he said=’WHY

DID YOU DOUBT?’”                                                                                                                            Matthew 14:31

 

“Jesus replied=’Truly=I tell you=if you have faith=

And DO NOT DOUBT=not only can you do=what was

 

Done to the fig tree=but you can also say to

This mountain’=

‘Go throw yourself=into the sea’=and it will be done=

If you believe=you will receive=WHATEVER you

Ask for in prayer”                                                                                                                                 Matthew 21:21

 

BELIEVING in God=Believing Jesus=is easy=when

Things are going your way=But how about when they

ARE NOT=do you still believe?=The story of

OUR “DOUBTING” Thomas=is for us=ESPECIALLY

For us=on this DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY=Never doubt

The Lord=it is=FOR OUR SAKES TOO!

 

Our Apostle Thomas=CHALLENGED the Lord to

SHOW HIMSELF=to him=and he did=and Jesus and

OUR HEAVENLY FATHER God=show themselves to us

Every day=of our lives

 

We may NOT TOUCH=his hands and his side=like Thomas

Did=but the Lord challenges us too=He wants us to=

TOUCH HIS HEART=with our love=That SAME LOVE=He

Gives us=every day of our lives=DON’T DOUBT the Lord

ON Divine Mercy Sunday=or ANY DAY of your life=This story

IS=FOR OUR SAKES TOO!

 

“But when you ask=you must believe=AND NOT DOUBT=

Because the one=WHO DOUBTS=Is like a wave=of the sea

Blown and tossed=by the wind”                                                                                                            James 1:6

 

“Be merciful to those=WHO DOUBT”                                                                                            Jude :22

Just like our Lord=was to Thomas=and is to

ALL of us

 

Jesus' LESSON to Thomas=and to us=is=THE CROSS

It is the way=THE ONLY WAY=to salvation=FIND it

In the Lord’s life=and IN our Heavenly Father God

This lesson is=FOR OUR SAKES TOO!

 

“Then he said to them all=’Whoever wants to be

My disciple=must deny themselves=Take up

THEIR CROSS=daily and follow me”                                                                                       Luke 9:23

 

Thomas is AN INSPIRATION to us all=He said=For Jesus

Said to him=”Blessed are those=who have NOT SEEN=

But BELIEVED”=His story is OUR STORY                                                                                 John 20:29
