As Jesus heals ten lepers, only one—a Samaritan outsider—returns to give thanks. In this powerful reflection on gratitude and belonging, Dr. Longbons reminds us that faith doesn’t begin with fitting in or doing all the right things. It begins on our knees, in praise. Before we seek inclusion, recognition, or even healing, we are invited to see ourselves as Christ sees us—beloved, restored, and called to begin again in gratitude.
