Ephesians 2:19-22
(19) So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God, (20) being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone; (21) in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord; (22) in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

Psalms 117:1-2
(1) Praise Yahweh, all you nations! Extol him, all you peoples! (2) For his loving kindness is great toward us. Yahweh’s faithfulness endures forever. Praise Yah!

John 20:24-29
(24) But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, wasn’t with them when Jesus came. (25) The other disciples therefore said to him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.” (26) After eight days again his disciples were inside, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, the doors being locked, and stood in the middle, and said, “Peace be to you.” (27) Then he said to Thomas, “Reach here your finger, and see my hands. Reach here your hand, and put it into my side. Don’t be unbelieving, but believing.” (28) Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” (29) Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen, and have believed.”
