Today's Gospel reading was the story of the apostle Thomas, and his doubts about the others having seen actually seen Jesus. Father's reflection on the Gospel wasn't strictly on the "Doubting Thomas" component, but more on who Thomas the man really was. I had never considered who the man himself was. It is easy to judge based on the perception you have of the actions another takes. I know I have judged based on behavior before. It isn't something I am proud of, but I have had a gut reaction based strictly on what I saw and how I perceived what I had seen. I have reacted according to my perceptions.
It was a reminder there is more to the story than meets the eye.
