(2nd
Sunday of Easter)
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, good
morning!
Before believing in anything, we normally
ask for proof that is “certified true and
correct.” In matters of faith, however, this is not always the case.
In today’s Gospel, Christ calls blessed
those who believe without seeing. Jesus had shown himself to the apostles - he
is alive and reigns in glory. The response of Thomas is for every believer. We
confess Jesus as our Lord and God though we have not seen him with our own
eyes. But we do see him with the eyes of faith, and we give testimony to this
faith by our living hope and active service to our brothers and sisters.
Today also is Divine Mercy Sunday, promoted
by St Faustina Kowalska. This celebration is a perennial call to every
Christians to face, with confidence to divine benevolence, the difficulties and
trials that humankind will experience in the years to come.
Let us all stand for the entrance hymn!
