In this week’s message, Minister Mitchell Fields dives into the powerful theme of gratitude through the parable of the ten lepers in Luke 17. Jesus heals ten men suffering from leprosy, instructing them to show themselves to the priests. Remarkably, while all are healed, only one— a Samaritan—returns to express his gratitude. Minister Fields emphasizes that gratitude not only strengthens our relationship with God but also enhances our connections with others, fostering a sense of community and appreciation. Drawing on recent scientific studies, he highlights gratitude as a transformative practice that can reshape our brains, improve relationships, and reduce stress. Min. Fields encourages the congregation to actively cultivate gratitude, regardless of life’s challenges, as a vital component of spiritual growth and maturity. He stresses that gratitude is not just a reaction to good circumstances but a fundamental practice for believers, urging everyone to recognize God’s sovereignty in all situations. By embodying thanksgiving, we reflect the love of God and reinforce a cycle of grace, gratitude, and praise that anchors us spiritually. As the holiday season approaches, Minister Fields calls on us to promote kindness and gratitude as a lifestyle, not a one-time practice, echoing Jesus's example of inclusivity and love. He concludes with a heartfelt reminder that our expressions of gratitude can change the world, one life at a time. “Don’t Forget To Say Thank You” captures the essence of acknowledging and appreciating God's love, the blessings in our lives, and the people around us.
