Story

On the border between Samaria and Galilee, ten lepers cried out from a distance for mercy. Jesus sent them to the priests, and as they went they were cleansed, but only one returned to give thanks.

Takeaway

Jesus' mercy deserves remembered gratitude. For me: do not receive grace and forget the Giver.
