Gratitude – Use it or lose it
Pastor Charley Hill
Now on his way to Jerusalem, Jesus traveled
along the border between Samaria and Galilee. As he was going
into a village, ten men who had leprosy met him. They stood at
a distance and called out in a loud voice, "Jesus, Master,
have pity on us!" When he saw them, he said, "Go, show
yourselves to the priests." And as they went, they were
cleansed. One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back,
praising God in a loud voice. He threw himself at Jesus' feet
and thanked him-and he was a Samaritan. Jesus asked, "Were not
all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? Was no one found
to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?" Then
he said to him, "Rise and go; your faith has made you well."
Luke 17:11-19 NIV
Daily Bible Study & Prayer
Daily Bible reading set up:
Do you have a special place where you place yourself before
God and His Word every day? If not, designate some place in
your house where you can be alone and uninterrupted for at
least a half hour each day. You may want to begin by reading a
few pages from a Christian book. Often this prepares our heart
and mind for Scripture and prayer. When you read the following
passages this week, follow this pattern:
1. Read
the passage slowly.
2. Ponder
the meaning.
3.
Meditate. Open your spirit to the Holy Spirit through His Word
by the process of your imagination. Ask God to reveal to you a
scene that illustrates the truth He is trying to teach you.
Daily Bible Reading this week:
Each day you’ll be reading about the
life of Jesus and other people’s perceptions/expectations of
Him. Ponder what they expected in contrast with Who He was
presenting Himself to be and what He would do in contrast with
what they wanted Him to do. Consider what you expect of Jesus
contrasted with Who He really is and what He really offers.

bulletin each Sunday. Here’s the plan:

so on through the rest of the year. Having this as your basic,
background reading will help you know Jesus better. |
