First Friday of July
Left the condo late with my Tudor Black Bay 54 on my left wrist and my Apple watch on my right.
I was dropped off by Edgar, the driver, at Sto. Niño de Paz Greenbelt Chapel. Good thing, the prayers before the Mass has not yet started. Left the religious items at the table where blessing will be performed by the priest after the Mass before going to my usual seat.
I was able to finish my morning prayers, the Precious Blood of Jesus chaplet and joined the community to pray the Rosary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus Novena,.
The Mass presider is Fr. Benny.
It is the Memorial of St. Thomas.
Thomas, although known for his doubts, is also known for his words “My Lord and my God”. He was able to transition to naming Jesus as God (from lack of faith to a believer).
Doubt in itself is not bad. Unless it is an absolute doubt wherein you are closed in thinking and feeling. There is the Filipino saying "Hirap gisingin ang nagtutulugan." It is an act of the will.
Doubt based o. Experience and knowledge that does not conform. It makes us humble that will change our doubt into belief or confirm our doubt.
Thomas represented us who are unbelieving.
The belief in the resurrection.
Blessed those who believe without seeing..
What has to be proven our faith in Him. He has already proven what we should believe.
To believe is to see
