Sunday of Thomas II


"The disciples were assembled on the eighth day,

And the Savior appeared to them!

He gave them peace and said to Thomas:

Come, O Apostle, feel my hands, which were pierced by nails!

O most wonderful doubt of Thomas!

It brought the hearts of the faithful to knowledge!

My Lord and my God, glory to Thee!"


What is the nature of the mysterious, life-giving connection between wounds, doubt/struggle, and the release of grace for revelation?
