Inspiration
In this passage, Jesus addresses Thomas, who doubted His resurrection until he could see and touch Jesus’ wounds. Jesus acknowledges Thomas’s belief based on sight, yet He also proclaims a blessing over those who believe without seeing. This statement holds great significance for every Christian. Faith is often a journey that requires trust in what is unseen, which can be challenging in a world driven by tangible evidence and proof. By affirming the blessedness of believing without sight, Jesus encourages believers to rely on the spiritual truths of His promises and the assurance of His presence. For many, the experiences of God’s presence may not come with visible signs, but through peace, love, and conviction that surpass understanding. This passage teaches that faith is not reliant on physical evidence but rooted in a heart that trusts in God’s word and character. It’s an invitation to deepen our spiritual insight and embrace the mystery of divine love and power. Such faith brings us into a blessed relationship with God, built on trust and a profound confidence in His love, which becomes the foundation of our lives. This blessing empowers believers to face life’s uncertainties with hope and assurance, knowing that though they cannot see Him, God is ever-present, guiding and strengthening them.
