Only This Foreigner Returned to Give Thanks to God!

Making Friends With The Lord Jesus · Nov 11, 2025 · 13m

We learn several things from the gospel today. First, we need to recognize that we are limited and acknowledge it. Second, after realizing we need something —like the lepers in today's gospel —we go to the one who can help us. Hence, we pray to God also and ask for help from others. Third, we are not the source of our gifts. We have only been recipients. Fourth, we need to thank that Source of all Gifts. This is why gratitude is a good sign of genuine humility.
