Noli me Tangere

(Found here)

The paradox of the believer’s experience,
Augustine
nailed it in a sentence.

To the one who has doubts,
to Thomas Didymus,
the risen Lord declares
‘Here, touch me!’

But to the one who believes and who seeks,
to Magdalen
who found Him in the garden,
Christ says
‘Do not touch me!’

~Paul Murray
