Scripture: – Luke 17:15
One of the lepers, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice.
In everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. – 1 Thessalonians 5:18
In Jesus’ time, leprosy was much worse than a skin disease – those who suffered from it were considered “unclean” and thus lost their jobs, families and friends.
I’m sure all ten of the men whom Jesus healed of leprosy (Luke 17:11-19) FELT extremely grateful. Yet only one came back to Jesus and verbally thanked him. The Lord commended this man’s act of grateful appreciation, which was recorded for all of history.
