Healing the Wounds of Doubt in Thomas
. . .
English Homily for New Sunday & Divine Mercy Sunday
. . .
On the first Sunday after the Resurrection, the focus is on Thomas, known as the Doubter, who struggled to believe in Jesus' resurrection. Despite being seen as problematic, hardheaded, and demanding, Thomas' doubt stems from his past experiences and yearning for concrete proof. Jesus, instead of reprimanding him, meets him in his pain and invites him to touch his wounds, leading to Thomas' belief. The narrative concludes with the saying, "Blessed are those who have not seen yet believed."
