It's been an exciting week! I'm thankful for the boys' winning their game, and our possibility to win state. I'm thankful for the spring-like temps that have been visiting the Chicagoland area. I'm thankful to be alive to enjoy this wonderful world.
It's faith in God that makes us thankful. Knowing that God has a hand in the amazing life we live causes us to open our mouths in praise. And when the Lord hears our gratitude and gratefulness, He is all the more inclined to give us more.
When one of the lepers saw that he was cleansed by Jesus, He turned back and gave God praise. Jesus saw the man's act of thankfulness, and told him that his faith had made him whole. (Luke 17:19)
There were nine other lepers who got cleansed that same day. They still walked away with their physical healing. But the one man who turned back and rightfully praised the One who made it possible - he received healing in every area of his life. He was made complete. He was fully delivered.
Make sure you are keeping up your attitude of thankfulness. Don't forget to give proper praise to the One who's making it all possible. It's one thing to be blessed here and there. It's another thing to be blessed in every area of your life!
Have a great weekend!
Verse of the Day: And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole. Luke 17:15-19
Great thoughts. Thank you.Yes, let us not forget to give proper praise to the One who's making it all possible
