I have been using the YouVersion Bible App because of the many Bible Studies it offers. This month I chose:

Here is an excerpt:
“RETURNING TO SAY THANK YOU
Praise is celebrating what God can do; worship is celebrating who He is; thanksgiving is your intentional response to what He has already done. It is the attitude of a heart that acknowledges mercy received, aid given, and danger escaped. In Luke 17, there were ten cured men but one who came back to thank — and he was healed. God wants you to “return.” Do not take things for granted. Thank Him for what He has done, what He is not giving you, and what He is not giving you from.
Gratitude magnifies what matters and protects your heart against entitlement.
Condition your inner eyes to see God’s fingerprints on daily life. If you can think well enough, you will be able to thank well; when you rush thoughtlessly, ingratitude is multiplied. I would like you to develop the habits that cause you to “return”: have a gratitude list, bear witness on time when God answers prayer, and turn every provision into praise. The more you recall, the more you will come back; the more you come back, the more you will be filled. Have your life testify, “I will enter into His gates with thanksgiving.”
I want to be the one who returns to say thank you to the Lord.
“On the way to Jerusalem he was passing along between Samaria and Galilee. And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers, who stood at a distance and lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.” When he saw them he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went they were cleansed. Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice; and he fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan. Then Jesus answered, “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine? Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” And he said to him, “Rise and go your way; your faith has made you well.””
