The Ten Who Were Healed
"Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?"Luke 17:18
Reflection
Ten were healed and only one came back to say thank you. Receiving is easy; remembering to be thankful takes effort and is worth a lot.
Prayer
Jesus, make me the kind who comes back to say thanks. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
- How many were healed, and how many came back?
- Why is it easy to forget to say thank you?
- Who do you need to thank today?
5-minute activity
Line up ten toys or paper figures. Turn nine away and move one back toward a figure of Jesus. Then each person writes a thank-you note to someone they forgot to thank. Read Luke 17:11-19.
