O Glorious Saint Thomas,
your grief for Jesus was such that it
would not let you believe He had risen
unless you actually saw Him and touched His wounds.
But your love for Jesus was equally great
and it led you to give up your life for Him.
Pray for us that we may grieve for our sins
which were the cause of Christ’s sufferings.
Help us to give ourselves in His service
and so earn the title of “blessed” which Jesus applied to those who would believe in Him without seeing Him.
Amen.
