Is every finite, nondiscrete $T_0$ space connected?

Is every finite, nondiscrete $T_0$ space connected? What I've tried is to find a separation and thus get a contradiction with the statement that the space is nondiscrete. After some time I've got lost in it. It seems so "picky".

Let $X=\{1,2,3\}$ be endowed with topology $\tau=\{\varnothing,\{2\},\{3\},\{1,2\},\{2,3\},\{1,2,3\}\}$.

Then $X$ is $T_0$ and e.g. $\{3\}$ is a non-trivial clopen set.
