21 Days of Gratitude - Part II - "Gratitude Killers"
November 15, 2009 -
Pastor Ed Kang
Luke 17:11-19 - Jesus heals 10 lepers, but only one comes back to thank him. Where are the other 9? If you were one of the 9 who didn't come back, what would have been your reason? One possibility could be a sense of entitlement which saturates today's society--the idea that we're entitled to a good life, perfect friends or spouse, effortless achievements, and therefore when we focus on and grumble about what's NOT perfect, ingratitude is what results. Gratitude or ingratitude depends on what we choose to look at: the reality of what's there, or demanding what's not there.
