Precious Blood of Jesus, Day 3

 



My Lord and my God 

Happy Feast of St Thomas the Apostel to all

John 20:25–27 (NJB): So the other disciples said to him, ‘We have seen the Lord,’ but he answered, ‘Unless I can see the holes that the nails made in his hands and can put my finger into the holes they made, and unless I can put my hand into his side, I refuse to believe.’ 26 Eight days later the disciples were in the house again and Thomas was with them. The doors were closed, but Jesus came in and stood among them. ‘Peace be with you,’ he said. 27 Then he spoke to Thomas, ‘Put your finger here; look, here are my hands. Give me your hand; put it into my side. Do not be unbelieving any more but believe.’ Thomas replied, ‘My Lord and my God!’ 

In the month of July, the Feast of St Thomas has a coincidence for the feast. St Thomas has a doubt about the resurrection of Jesus. Jesus appeared to him and told him to put the finger on his hands and on his side. The wound on his side where the soldier pierced, which was gone deep into his heart and Blood and water was came through the wounds. Jesus shed his Blood on the Cross, this was with the Blood he established the New Covenant. St Thomas realized the truth while he put his finger into his side. He said my Lord and my God!

Lord, we believe, You are our Lord and God.
