(Luke 17:11-19) "¶ And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. {12} And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: {13} And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. {14} 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. {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. {17} And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? {18} There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. {19} And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole."

'Thank you' for the reminder . We tend to take for granted and not be thankful for all he has given .

It seems that there's nothing man can be granted that he won't soon take for granted. Only when we humble ourselves before the Lord in prayer, do we usually realize the true value of all the "little things" we have that really make our days what they are. And true, inner thankfulness seems to usually be a very fleeting thing in this, the 21st century, now. Folks are more and more focused almost entirely on themselves, and what their wants and desires may be, and aren't even thankful for the things they get. It seems to just egg them on to desire yet more stuff, much of which is often pretty frivolous and unneeded. Are we humans a real piece of work, or what? And do we worship a wonderful, loving and patient Lord, or what?
