Just after My resurrection I appeared to the disciples. The first time I appeared to them, Thomas was not there. When the disciples reported that they had seen Me, he said, "Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe."
Eight days later I saw My disciples again and this time Thomas was with them. I came thru the shut doors and stood in front of Thomas. I said, "Reach your finger, and behold my hands; and reach your hand, and thrust it into my side, and be not faithless, but believing." Thomas then believed.
I said to Thomas, "Because you have seen Me, you have believed: blessed are they who have not seen, and yet have believed." Seeing is believing, but faith is the evidence of things not seen. You are blessed because you have never seen Me and yet you have faith that I exist. The day will come when you will see exactly what Thomas saw. Look forward to that day.
