Mary Came

John 20

Mary

She saw the angels
yet she did not know
where they had lain her Lord

She talked to a man
yet she did not see
who it was

until he called her name

She knew his voice
her shepherd
her master

but she couldn't hug him
            - yet

Go tell the others
was His command
as it is still to us today

Peace be unto you

Thomas

It was Thomas who wanted to be sure
the other disciples were not deceived
But he stayed with them
fasting and praying
worshiping

On the 8th day
his patience was rewarded

Come Thomas
   feel the nail prints in my palms
   reach your hand into my side
    and believe
