Pastor Jim reflects on the story of the ten lepers to emphasize the beauty and importance of genuine gratitude. He highlights how only one healed man — a Samaritan — returned to thank Jesus, demonstrating a heart transformed by reflection, recognition, humility, and praise. Pastor Jim encourages believers to practice intentional gratitude, turning their pain into praise and expressing thanks to God and others, and reminds us that salvation through Christ is the greatest reason for thanksgiving.
