(Basing this on a “tweet” I read earlier, the message of which is attributed to Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen)
Sometimes a man who misses a meeting misses much. If minutes of first meeting were written would contain the words ‘Thomas was not there’
Short meeting took place between Jesus and a number of the Apostles.
Present: Peter, Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthews, James The Less, Jude and Simon ….
Absent: Thomas!!
- Meeting began with a prayer …..
- Jesus said “Peace be with you”
- We shared some fish with him.
- We discussed what had happened over the previous few days.
- We talked about the “empty tomb”
- The women’s report was discussed.
- He repeated “Peace be with you”
- The meeting concluded!
Sometimes doubts come about because we weren’t there!!
