Mass yielded an excellent homily. Today's gospel reading was about Thomas and his doubt that Jesus had risen, and so Fr. George discussed doubt in real life. Where is God, you might say, when you are in the deepest pit of despair? He is there beside you. God didn't promise us a strife-free life - His son died on a cross, cruelly, slowly. Each of us has a cross to bear, and at times we fall and doubt the presence of God. That is a part of life, but we must remember He is there.
A lighter note in the homily was the point that sometimes, there are people we work with that can cause us to doubt - and I know this one's true. But, with perseverance I have been able to reduce that doubt.
