And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priest. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,
And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine.
Modern medicine is a wonderful thing, and I can't help think of the wonderful spiritual gifts of healing the sick. Today Mariah was not feeling 100% so we were able to give her some medicine, which help her get better. When I think of all the sickness that our family (including extended family) has had to overcome, I can't help but think of the above scripture. We need to make sure that we show gratitude for the healing power that has come upon us all over the years.
That is one of the things I dislike about winter. It always seems like we are sick more. I like to get out in the fresh air but our air lately has been a little colder than I like.
