Today we have forgotten: the Real way, the truth and the Life, so the urgent need is to repeat the question of St. Philip, the apostle: Lord us the Father. We instead have become the way, truth and life. We are replacing God with all our inventions and power, authority and wealth. We have become blind with our success and development so many of us do not feel the need of the way, the truth and the Life….we are so confident in ourselves that we just ignore Him. But we humans forget the Jesus is the great and only and final answer for our woes and worries, problems and sufferings. Only in close union and communion that we can find our way, we will know the truth and will find a happy and true Life. 
We have developed a sense or a false spiritual attitude and behavior that we must see before we believe. We doubt and suspect everything that is spiritual and divine. There is still alive and living St. Thomas deep in us. We are like him stubborn unless we see….cannot believe….we need corrections as the Risen Lord corrected Philip….so long you have been with me and yet you do not see the Father….God is visible in Jesus and even now as you participate in the Eucharist….reading the word of God…as you smile at someone…as you take care of the sick…as your pray for someone….you see the Father…
The Lord Jesus has left us signs and wonders to believe and trust in His mighty presence. The biggest sign is the Holy Eucharist…..let us read these signs and miracles and we will see the Father and his love and concern for all of us…The miracles, moral teaching, divine and healing words and resurrection of Jesus is enough proof for us to believe and accept him as the Way, truth and Life…..
