As Jesus heals the ten lepers of their leprosy, only one returns, the Samaritan, to thank Jesus. That's not to say that the other nine lepers were not thankful for the healing, but they were going to show themselves to the priests like Jesus had told them to do. The Samaritan return to thank Jesus directly, because it was from Him that the healing came. We might think that there are certain things in our lives that ONLY we can do. But when it comes to our forgiveness, our salvation, that ONLY comes through Jesus.
