homas Meditation 28 of 52 The doors were closed where the disciples were gathered for fear of the Jews. — John 20:19 God has grown accustomed to our small and cowardly ways of waiting behind closed doors of fear and self-doubt. God knows that we settle for easy certitudes and common fears instead of Gospel freedom, for a very small god instead of a Big Mystery. Yet God seems surely determined to break through: “And Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said ‘Peace!’” (John 20:26). The Spirit eventually overcomes the obstacles that we present and surrounds us with enough peace so that we can, like the first “doubting” Thomas, touch and accept the “wounds in [Jesus’] hands and his side” (20:27)—which is really to accept his own woundedness—and the frailty of all created being. Until we know that the Christ is wounded too, we seem unable to accept that this might be the shape of all reality. His wound, of course, is his standing act of solidarity with all of suffering creation. Adapted from Radical Grace: Daily Meditations, pp. 192-193, Day 205 (Available through Franciscan Media)
