The other 9?

Luke 17 tells the tale of 10 lepers who cried out to Jesus for healing from their disease. Jesus had pity on them and healed them. Yet only 1 man returned to give thanks to God.

Thanksgiving is an important element of life and we should never forget to stop to say "Thank You"! Thanksgiving releases us from feeling pity and can actively relieve depression.

Thanksgiving releases praise and allows our hearts to enter the presence of God freely.

Even Jesus showed sadness at not receiving thanks from all the lepers, so warm the heart of God by giving him thanks today for all that he has done for you!
