Doubting Thomas – Lectio Divina- April 11 2-10

April 11, 2010 By Jean Wise

Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!” John 20:24
What a statement of faith – Thomas recognized You for who You are and all he could say was “My Lord and my God.”  That is probably all he needed to say isn’t it, Lord?
Lord forgive me when I get too wordy, focusing my prayers only on my needs, my doubts, my fears.
Lord when I see You – really recognize You – with the eyes of my heart – I know.  Yes I know deeply You are my Lord and my God.
No other words are needed
A prayer of worship and praise – my Lord and my God.
A prayer when I can’t find the words – my Lord and my God
A prayer when I am filled with doubt and have lost my way – my Lord and my God.
A prayer to whisper in your presence – my Lord and my God.
You are my Lord and my God!

    Great reflection. This will definitely be a prayer of mine this week. I posted about Thomas myself today. I have always loved those words!

    Thanks Johnnie. Just think what a wonderful prayer to simply bow in worship saying/singing: My Lord and My God!
