The celebration of the Easter Season last far beyond the actual day of Easter itself, just as Christmas is celebrated long after December 25. Today, we also have the joy of celebrating a relatively new feast, that of Divine Mercy. If you are not familiar with the devotion to Divine Mercy, I would encourage you to read more about St. Faustina Kowalska, to whom Jesus appeared to give us assurance that His Mercy was and always will be greater than our sins. Let us remember to ask for that Mercy always!
Dr. Kreeft gives us two different reflections on the gospel reading today, which is from the end of the Gospel of John, and includes the story we often refer to as doubting Thomas. One reflection is based on that part of the story, and the other on the ending of the Gospel. The time marks are as follows:
