Week Two

When all seems lost - Healing can happen - Don’t forget GRATITUDE

Read Luke 17: 11-19

In the story the ten people suffering from leprosy are all healed. But only one returned to give thanks.

Why do you think he returned? What motivated him or her to return to say thank you? Why do you think giving thanks to someone can have a physical and emotional effect? Does it add to the healing process?

Read Jeremiah 29: 1-7

Why is Jeremiah’s advice wise? How would you describe the aspect of gratitude that is implied in the advice?

Read 2 Timothy 2: 8-25

Read this text again and consider how gratitude is implied in the mindset of Paul as he prepares to face death.
