    The Bible says only one in ten will return to praise God for what He has done for me. Nine people were healed, but only one person honored the Lord. Only one person was found to be kneeling at Jesus’ feet, thanking Jesus.

    Jesus met ten anonymous people in our story today, we are never told their names. All ten men were soon to die and all ten men were miraculously healed. Only one of the ten came back to thank Jesus. I wonder, if you were one of these ten, would you be a part of the nine who didn’t return to give ...read more

    In the Bible, giving of thanks goes far beyond an annual American celebration on a day we remember to thank God for a multitude of blessings. It is a preoccupation of every Christian and extends even to those elders who are "before the throne" in heaven.

    Today, I want to explore the significance of thanksgiving in our lives as Christians. While Thanksgiving is often associated with a single day of gratitude in America, the Bible teaches us that giving thanks goes far beyond an annual celebration. It is a continuous attitude and action that should ...read more
