Doubts Are Always With Us

Note: An unexpected return to the Emergency Room this Friday Morning, prevented the publishing of a Slice of Daily Bread.  Sorry...but am happy that the examination did not show anything more than a reaction to a possible insect bite  That was a relief...Bell's Palsy was one possibilities or another slight stroke...No so, thank God.  Back to normal. Here's Friday's Slice along with Saturday's.

As we celebrate the Fourth of July on the Third, we also celebrate the Feast of St. Thomas, the Doubting Apostle. When we think of the situation, his doubt is very plausible, and thanks be to it, we have another verification of the Resurrection.  His doubt and the proof shown to him make the reality of the resurrection  more tenable.
Doubt is always with us and we do not have the luxury of having Jesus with us physically to wipe it away, so we rely on our own prayer and the often intervention of God via some circumstance or Scripture verse that "happens" to come by us, to remove it.  It is good to remember that doubts are always with us an can be an invitation to a  stronger faith. St.Thomas, pray for us always, but especially in the midst of our daily doubts.
