Bible Reading: Luke 17: 11 – 19
Theme: ARE YOU GRATEFUL ENOUGH?
Text: Luke: 17: 15 – 16
15: And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16: And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.”

It takes a grateful and humble person to appreciate every good work towards him. God counts on gratitude! No small help, support, assistance or kindness done to you should be ignored without appreciation – either to God or to man. God loves and honour a grateful man. Jesus sent ten lepers to the priest in the process of their healing. They responded to his order in faith, and they encountered their healing on their way. When you obey God you will enjoy His blessings. When result manifest – testimony and gratitude is the next thing.
Are you like the ungrateful nine lepers who never returned to thank God? Jesus refers to the ungrateful attitude of the nine lepers. When the ten lepers were healed, only one returned to thank Jesus. Some people benefits from God goodness but are ungrateful. Only a thoughtful, humble, grateful and thankful person will understand and appreciate God’s grace and goodness. God will not compulsorily demand for your thanks, but wisdom, morals and common sense tells it is necessary. God is happy when we do it. God often use our responsiveness to teach us more about his good works and his goodness. Be grateful
