Text Of The Day: Jesus Is Lord

John 20: 24-29

24 Now Thomas, one of the Twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and place my finger into the mark of the nails, and place my hand into his side, I will never believe.”
26 Eight days later, his disciples were inside again, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” 27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe.” 28 Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” 29 Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”


(This encounter with Thomas that Jesus had is very important to understand Jesus' Identity. First, Jesus has just risen from the dead. Second, Thomas realizes who Jesus is, "Lord and God". I hope that you have come to the place in your life where you can say about Jesus, "My Lord and My God.")
