Apologize: St. Thomas the Apostle
... Because sometimes people have just got to see and touch the Savior before they proclaim Him their Lord and their God; but He can, in fact, be touched and seen.
(this reluctant apostle eventually undertook the majority of evangalization in the Middle East, before his martyrdom in AD 72 in India.)
O Glorious Savior, may we grieve for our sins which were the cause of your sufferings. Help us to spend ourselves in your service, and so earn the title of "blessed" which you apply to those who would believe in you, though without seeing you. Amen.
