I guess you all know the story. After the Resurrection, Jesus appeared to the Disciples whilst Thomas was not there. When he was told what happened, Thomas did not believe. A week later, whilst Thomas was there, Jesus appeared again.
You can read the whole story in John 20:19-31
Now let's consider this:
Jesus knows everything. He knew that the first time Thomas would not be there. But He chose to appear to the disciples all the same. He could have appeared at a time where Thomas and all the others were together; but He didn't.
This way we have the story of Thomas and his doubts. A story which has been recorded by John in the Gospel and another piece of evidence that Jesus did indeed rise from the dead.
Unwittingly, Thomas gave us all more evidence about the Resurrection.
We all doubt from time to time, we analyse and ask ourselves about our faith and what we truly believe.
God knows our human nature because He created us, and He forgives our doubts time and again.
There once was a man whose son was very ill, and he came to Jesus for
help, ‘Help us if you can,’ he asked Jesus.
Jesus replied, ‘Everything is possible if you have Faith,’ to which the
man said ‘I do have Faith, but not enough, help me to have more.’
Jesus healed this man’s son. He saw that the man was struggling with his Faith, as we all do from time to time. So He helped him.
I believe Lord, help my unbelief. Mark 9:24
