You Should Be Grateful For What God Has Done

Do not forget to be thankful. Everything in your life may not be the way you want it, but you still have plenty to give God thanks for. Stop looking at what you do not have. You should be grateful for what you have. Thank God for the breath in your lungs, the food on your table, the clothes on your back. You could have been dead, but you are still alive, so take a moment and bless God for being so good to you.

Do not be like the nine lepers. As Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem, he entered a village and encountered ten lepers who had leprosy. They cried out for Jesus to have mercy on them, and He did. Jesus told them to go show themselves to the priest, and they would be healed. They did as He said, and they were all healed.

But even though ten lepers were all healed, only one came back to Jesus to thank Him. He was a Samaritan, and He fell at Jesus’s feet, praising God. “Didn’t I heal ten men?” Jesus said. “Where are the nine?” Jesus told the one who was grateful, “Go your way. Your faith has made you whole.”
