BEING GRATEFUL AND THANKFUL

Luke 17:12,14-19 GW

[12] As he went into a village, ten men with a skin disease met him. They stood at a distance [14] When he saw them, he told them, “Show yourselves to the priests.” As they went, they were made clean. [15] When one of thankful and gratefulthem saw that he was healed, he turned back and praised God in a loud voice. [16] He quickly bowed at Jesus’ feet and thanked him. (The man was a Samaritan.) [17] Jesus asked, “Weren’t ten men made clean? Where are the other nine? [18] Only this foreigner came back to praise God.” [19] Jesus told the man, “Get up, and go home! Your faith has made you well.”

Let the spirit of gratitude be your rule of thumb. Give thanks where it’s due.

Prayer: Father, I never want to be amongst the ungrateful. These are those who fail to see all the great things You have done and continue to do in their lives. Whenever Jesus performs a miracle, big or small, in my life, let me be that truly grateful “one” who turns to give thanks. Thank You for loving me enough to send Jesus. Amen.
