Gratitude

True joy and fulfillment in our lives will never happen without a life of gratitude (Luke 17:11-19). In fact, gratitude changes the way we see the world around us. When Jesus heals ten lepers, only one (a Samaritan) immediately turns back towards Jesus and falls at His feet to give thanks and praise. Before anything else, this one leper offers gratitude. Unfortunately, most of us are like the other nine lepers. We find ourselves believing we either deserve what we do not have or deserve more than what we have been given. The call and challenge for us is to lead with gratitude to our Heavenly Father, like the one leper. When we do, we can begin to experience the continual feast of blessing and start to recognize opportunities to verbalize our gratitude to God and to others.
