“But Thomas said to them, ‘Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands, and put my finger in the mark of the nails and my hand in his side, I will not believe'” (John 20:25)
Unless….
Unless _________________….I will not believe.
Wow. Take a good look at those words.
- This is after the women told the disciples that Jesus had risen.
- This is after Peter and John ran and saw the empty tomb.
- This is after all the disciples told Thomas that they had seen the resurrected Jesus.

Unless….
What’s your “unless”?
- What’s keeping you from fully trusting that God is God and that God is in control?
- What’s your “unless” that’s keeping you from fully living into God’s promises?
- What’s your “unless” that keeps you from living God’s best life right now in the midst of this corona virus pandemic?
What do you say? How about we get rid of the “unless”-es in our lives?
“Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe” (John 20:29).
