“And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.” (Luke 17:15-16)
Instead of ridiculing the nine for their thanklessness, let us look at the Samaritan for what he did. He was one of ten lepers. Jesus healed all ten of then. This man turned back and gave thanks for what Jesus had done for him.
Let us not wait to see what others are doing to do the right thing. God abundantly blesses all of us in a multitude of ways every day. We should continually, day by day, moment by moment give a prayer of thanks to our Savior, our Shepherd, our provider and protector for His blessings upon us.
