Faith Seeking Understanding
from Anchored In The Lord
2nd Sunday of Easter To ask God questions, to seek to understand the "Why?" behind our beliefs or events in our life, is not a lack of faith. Rather, it's an indication of faith. We are a people of faith seeking understanding - it's precisely our faith that drives us to want to understand where and how God fits into these events and beliefs. In the resurrection story from our Gospel today, I think Thomas generally gets a bad rap. Jesus doesn't punish him for questioning, wondering, doubting - Jesus answers him! So we shouldn't be afraid to ask questions, to be discerning, to be skeptical; if we do these things honestly and sincerely, the Lord will answer and our faith will be deepened.
