I certainly do believe that a doubting moment can become a chance for revelation. From time to time I do have seeds of doubt but most times something comes along that erases the doubt and, again, confirms my faith in Jesus and his Holy Church.

Faith is a blessing! Thanks for reminding me of that. I think our Lord made doubt the other side of the coin. We keep coming back to faith again and again!

Thanks Bob for your very wonderful reflection.The idea of touching of Jesus when receiving the holy communion sounds new and yet very real. God bless you Bob for your description of Thomas

Your point of the touch of Jesus when we receive communion is perfect. We that sometimes doubt can come taste, touch and see the goodness of the Lord. Thank you Bob for a wonderful reflection!

The Eucharist is one very powerful experience a Catholic should not miss- if we surrender to God totally and genuinely prepare for mass, Jesus is really present in the Eucharist and I’m a living witness. We pray for those who still doubt that they get the ‘Thomasic’ experience.
Thank you Bob, indeed the word of God is new every morning.

Good morning Bob an thank you for a wonderful reflection. The word of God is indeed new every time we read it. Today you have given me a very new perspective of Thomas. As our priest once said, doubt could be a springboard in our faith. I pray that every time I stand in line to receive the Eucharist, I will remember what happened to Thomas after touching Jesus.
