Give thanks and praise to our Lord!

As Thanksgiving approches, we are reminded of all that we are thankful for. But, are we remembering thank God for all of this?  Luke 17 11-19 reminds us to thank God.

 After Jesus healed the ten men who had leprosy, only one came back to thank Him.  Jesus asked, "Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine?" 

At times we can all be like the nine lepers and forget to thank God. This Thanksgiving and every day for that matter remember to give thanks and praise to God, for He is the one who has truly blessed and enriched our lives.


Before watching and discussing Luke 17 11-19 we wrote down all that we were thankful for on sticky notes.  After looking at our lists, we decided that we should stick our lists to the cross...after all that is who deserves our thanks and praise. 

God is so good to provide for our every need. In Psalm 118 we are given an even greater reason to thank Him: His love endures forever.
