I think Thomas must have had some serious setbacks in his life, some wounds that shattered his hopes and affected his faith. People quite often identify with someone who have had similar wounds in life as they have had. So Thomas was identifying with the Jesus of the Cross as he found this easier. Even people of faith find It very hard to move on sometimes to the Risen Christ – as Thomas did with his exclamation “ My Lord and My God”. They have to personally touch the wounded God in their life.
