St. Thomas Feast Day


Today was the feast day of St. Thomas…the apostle they called Didymus.  My parents bestowed that very name upon me…placing it between my first and last name on the birth certificate.  

“Doubting Thomas”…How did they know? How did my parents know that I was a doubter…a doubter who questions all the unbelievable mysteries, unexplainable coincidences and total illogical anomalies?  I doubt, I question.  How and why does God do what he does? 

Even though I have no proof…I have nothing I can prove in a court of law or test in a science lab but in my heart of hearts I know God is an unbelievable God.  And some how that makes perfect sense to me.

Circumstantial evidence...empirical evidence...who knows?  For me the verdict is in, the litmus paper test is done. 

Dear Lord
You are totally unbelievable
The evidence is inconceivable
I don’t understand
But you’re the man
The man who is my God
Amen
