Jesus himself suddenly came and began walking with them. 16But God kept them from recognizing him.

“He was a prophet who did powerful miracles, and he was a mighty teacher in the eyes of God and all the people. 20But our leading priests and other religious leaders handed him over to be condemned to death, and they crucified him.

Suddenly, their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And at that moment he disappeared!

“Why are you frightened?” he asked. “Why are your hearts filled with doubt? 39Look at my hands. Look at my feet. 

“Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”

 “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? As for you, follow me.” 

Lord God my Father,

Have your way with me, open my eyes when I am ready and give me a faith that needs no proof. Allow your desire to overwhelm mine so I may see as you wish me to.

I Jesus name I pray,

Amen
