‘Are We Grateful To Jesus?’
Luke 17:17-18.
a) Jesus Christ clearly understood the situation. He is Omniscient and He still clearly understands today.
b) Ten lepers were cleansed and healed by Jesus but only one came back.
c) None of the Jewish lepers came back to Jesus to give Glory to God.
d) The only one who came back was a Gentile. He was a stranger and outsider.
(This QT both reminds me and challenges me: Am I Grateful To Jesus?)

‘Remembering The Reality Of God Today.’
a) Romans 8:28. To all of us who love God all things are working together for our good. Even though we do not understand all things.
b) Romans 8:28. God calls us according to His Purpose.
c) Proverbs 3:5. We are to trust God with all of our heart and not lean on our own understanding
d) Proverbs 3:6. In all our ways we should acknowledge Him and He will direct our hearts.
(Through this Second one I want to be Remembering The Reality Of God Today)

Chris.
None of the Jewish lepers came back to Jesus to give Glory to God and to say “thank you”. Sometimes we take God for granted. We receive many Blessings and Benefits from Him and take both Him and them for granted. We are not deserving of God’s Grace, Blessings and Benefits, that is what Grace is all about. Let us be more grateful to God and give Glory to Him through our dedicated lives.
