Christ, our God, Thomas touched your life-giving side with His seeking hand and, since You entered the room through closed doors, he cried out with the other Apostles, “My Lord and my God!” – Kontakion of the Sunday of Saint Thomas

On the Sunday of Saint Thomas we reflect upon the words of the Gospel of John and Saint John Cassian about believing in the Resurrection.

When looking at the sad and dark places in our lives and in the world, it can be difficult to fully accept the reality of Christ rising from the dead.� But Christ has compassion on our difficulties and continues to call upon us to touch his hands and his side, to doubt no more.� They say seeing is believing, but sometimes it is only through believing that we have the eyes to see the true wonders of the Resurrection.

Let us see and believe. Be sure to visit the website at isidorescorner.com/theosis

Christ, our Life, You rose from the sealed tomb and even though the doors were closed, You came before Your disciples and breathed into them a new spirit, You our God, our resurrection!� You are full of mercy. – Troparion of the Sunday of St. Thomas.
