Luke 17:15-16 &19
Then one of the lepers, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice. He prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him. And he was a Samaritan.
Then Jesus said to him, ‘Get up and go on your way; your faith has made you well.’
It is right, good, and fitting for you to offer praise and thanksgiving for all you have received from the loving and generous heart of God. This must be your attitude for the countless favours you have received. Praise and thank God even as you make your prayers of petitions to Me confident that everything you ask for in faith will be granted to you. The leper. cleansed of the dreaded disease that had alienated him from family and friends returned to Me overcome with gratitude and joy, he prostrated himself humbly before Me and thanked Me for healing him. This man was healed in every way not only from the obvious leprosy that had stigmatized him because he returned to give thanks with a grateful heart. Let this be your attitude too. A grateful heart overflowing with praise and thanksgiving in all circumstances will unleash upon you and those you love torrents of graces and blessing for your God is a generous God.
