内中有一个见自己已经好了，就回来大声归荣耀与上帝，(路加福音 17:15)
One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice. (Luke 17:15)
If the King of Kings can get only a 1 in 10 response of thanks, how can we expect more from others? Better to do our deeds to honor God and serve others than to do them to collect gratitude. May the grace of God be seen in us even when our kind acts go unappreciated.
Lord,
we like to be recognized for the things we do.
Help us to remember that we are not owed any recognition or thanks
but that we owe You a lifetime
of gratitude for the salvation You offer through Jesus.
Let your light so shine before men, that they may . . . glorify your Father in heaven. —Matthew 5:16
