*Jesus' visible wound*

On this feast of the Apostle, Thomas, the twin, I would like to consider an important aspect of our Christianity, namely: touching the wounds of the risen Christ in our daily life.

By inviting the Apostle Thomas to place his hand on his side, Jesus asserted that:

1) He is truly risen and alive. We must profess our faith in the divinity of Christ.

2)His wounds will continue to be visible on the bodies of all who are hungry, thirty, naked, humiliated or slaves, marginalized, in prisons or in hospitals.

3)We must touch, caress, heal the wounds of Jesus by doing our works of mercy.

O Most precious blood of Jesus Christ, heal the wounds in the most sacred heart of Jesus!

*Have a blessed week!*
