Luke 17:11-19 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. and as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: and they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. And when he saw them, he said unto them. Go shew yourselves unto the priests. and it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. and one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back and with a loud voice glorified God. And fell down on lhis face at his feet ficing him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. and Jesus answering said. Wher there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? There are not found that returned to give glory to God save this strange. And he said unto him.Arise , go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.
Are we like the other nine? How many times has God blessed us and we take it for granted, or worse give someone or something else the credit? The government gave me the tax credit! I just got a raise due to the hard work I have done at work.
I can do nothing, derserve only disgrace, not grace, and yet God so loved me (and you) that He gives us grace, love, blessings, life. In the trying times that are coming we need to keep our eyes on the source of all our needs and blessings, GOD
Prase God from who all blessings come!
At least that is what I think
