April 16

Introduction

Late Sunday evening Jesus appears to the disciples who are locked behind closed doors. Jesus breathes on them, and they receive the Holy Spirit. He appears to them again and Thomas’s faith is tested.

Today’s Scripture: John 20:29b

[Jesus said:] “How happy are those who believe without seeing me!”

Today’s Reading 

John 20:19-31

Reflect

Thomas is convinced that Jesus has been raised from the dead because he can see and touch the wounds Jesus received when he was crucified. But Jesus says that those who believe without seeing are the ones who are truly blessed. What does it mean to you to have faith without seeing? Does doubt play a role in faith?

Pray

Lord Jesus, sometimes I feel like Thomas, wanting proof of your love and grace. Reassure me in times of doubt, and increase my faith so that I may have confidence in you and live according to your will. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Those who doubt Jesus’s resurrection.

Tomorrow’s Reading

John 21:1-14: Jesus appears to seven disciples.
