It's not all about us......really

We all call him Doubting Thomas, although if you check Thomas out through the entire gospel of John you might change that to Impetuous Thomas.

But, as usual, we are focusing our attention on the wrong character in the story.  It's not Thomas' fear or doubt or unbelief that is at the center.  It is Jesus. Coming. Twice. Not detoured by a wavering Thomas.

Here, look, touch.  I am right here with you.

It's not about our wavering (In the gospel of Matthew, at the ascension some worshipped and some doubted).

 It is Jesus' faithfulness.

Really folks, it's not all about us.  We truly aren't the center of the universe.
The one who created it is.
