A SAMARITAN GIVES THANKS


November 10, 2010

D A I L Y G O S P E L

Pope St. Leo the Great was a very holy man who had both a heart for evangelization and the proper administration of the Church. His humility was well-renowned and drew many to him. Let us pray that the leaders in the Church today will be similarly disposed to place their lives in the service of the Gospel and the people of God.


Luke 17:11-19

11 As Jesus continued his journey to Jerusalem, he travelled through Samaria and Galilee. 12 As he was entering a village, ten lepers met him. They stood at a distance from him 13 and raised their voice, saying, “Jesus, Master! Have pity on us!” 14 And when he saw them, he said, “Go show yourselves to the priests.” As they were going they were cleansed. 15 And one of them, realizing he had been healed, returned, glorifying God in a loud voice; 16 and he fell at the feet of Jesus and thanked him. He was a Samaritan. 17 Jesus said in reply, “Ten were cleansed, were they not? Where are the other nine? 18 Has none but this foreigner returned to give thanks to God?” 19 Then he said to him, “Stand up and go; your faith has saved you.”
