“But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.” (John 20:25)
“Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.” Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!” (John 20:27-28)
“Stop doubting and believe.” Jesus is speaking these words not just to Thomas, but to all of us. In His Holy Word, His voice is echoing down through all the ages, throughout Eternity.
We each have an opportunity everyday to put our finger in the nail marks of His Hands, and in the wound of His Side. Jesus presents His wounds to us continually through the pain and sufferings of our fellow man. When we ease the sufferings of mankind in the Name of Jesus, we affirm our belief. When we serve others needs our actions cry out, “My Lord and my God.”
Are you listening for His voice echoing across time? Do you hear His call? Stop doubting and believe. He is calling you.
