St Thomas the Apostle

Unless I can put my hand into His side.
I refuse to believe.
Our own belief flows in and out, restless as the tide.
Indeed we cannot be its constant reeve.

We have to make our decisions for ourselves.
We will never willingly trust someone else’s word.
It is no stain on the mind’s complex realms.
It is human nature, we should never just go with the herd.

We demand the evidence of our eyes.
We will not accept the evidence of another.
Doubts will always rise.
Even when we are assured by a brother.

But worthy indeed it is indeed not to have seen.
But in faith’s holy womb been.
