A story about Gratitude; the rewards of being Grateful.


 Of all the tales and stories of gratitube and the rewards of being grateful, one stands out the most as a prime example of why these things are important. Are you one for stories, here is a short one about the importance of gratitude— benefits of gratitude.

 

 I am not one for religious stories, but when I read this story, I understood the divinity and wisdom Jesus had— truly. 



 'Now on Jesus' (Yeshua, Isa, Yēsū jīdū),  way to Jerusalem, Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee (those towns still exist today). As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy met him— ten. They stood at a distance and called out in a loud voice, “Jesus (Isa, Yeshua)— Master, have pity on us!”: Mind you, Jesus, to the astonishment of humans all those years back, healed people without hesitation, even against the will of Pharisees, then. But, he made sure he also healed people's spirits away from sin, making us understand that just performing miracles is not the epitome of his mission, but to turn us to God.


  When he saw the ten lepers that called out to him,this is how he healed them; he said, “Go, present yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were cleansed and healed.

 

 Only one of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, singing praises to 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?  Has no one returned to give praise to God our father, except this foreigner?” Then he said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well.”'

   

 Of all ten men, only one returned to show appreciation and show gratitude for his healing, and Jesus placed emphasis on that gesture as a good act. Not only was he healed, Jesus commended his faith and character.  


 Say this prayer: What good quality did you notice in the man that returned. He is a grateful person. Ask God for that spirit.         Luke 17:11-19.

Do people kiss in Bollywood movies?

Are bollywood kisses real? What is love like in India? You will know what we think about it, like never revealed previously.    Ever noticed, until recently, there were no kissing scenes in Bollywood movies. Somehow, a population of one billion just saw it unfit to lick lock on camera for decades. It is possible that there are laws that prohibited kisses and smooches on set.   Not until they actually touch hands, they just keep singing and running around, and expressing affections from behind trees and marbled pillars. That is the stereotype I became accustomed too.   One thing too is sure, it is true love. The divorce rate in India is about 1 out of every 110 marriages, making it much lower than all other countries of the world. The fact that Bollywood movies— most of them— don't portray explicit content doesn't mean they don't know how to love.   Frogs are married off to each other in India, as well, like in places like Varanasi. Old trad...

Family under God

Family under God - The family under God, "Wives, submit yourselves to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them. Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord. Fathers, do not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged." This is word from the Lord, and everybody has to do their parts and be befitting of their roles. Most important thing is to raise children in the way of our Lord, and to make sure your spouse is happy and upright.  -True Love for your family is first love for Jesus (Yeshua, Isa, Yēsū jīdū).  How can I love the water more than the well were it is sourced, formed from and preserved in. True love for children, parents, siblings, spouse, work, life, health, is first love for the Father in heaven and the power in his son and word Jesus; because I have searched and searched and by no other power on earth are my prayers answered, Yokai, djinn, and evil so called o...

Was Jesus a sorcerer?

  Was Jesus a sorcerer; Jesus accused of Sorcery ?   Jesus is accused of sorcery: Pharisees, the real beelzubuls said that Jesus was a sorcery, a false prophet using Beelzubul Beelzebub's evil powers.Imagine sowing such seed into Jesus' ministry. If you ever find yourself in a demonic attack or something like pressing or sleep paralysis, you scream the name of Jesus  (Yeshua, Isa, Yēsū jīdū), and command them to go— no voodoo or sorcery name can work that for you, and do you see what happens? That is the only light in the world, and we are not abandoned by God, if we have such power. The rest sorcery and rituals bring effects worse than that demon or issue you are trying to fight. Jesus brought us something, and it's not sorcery.  Now there came a time when Jesus was casting out demons, the same Pharisees that have timed Jesus since the beginning wanted more beef (quarrel), but of course the Lord doesn't believe in malice. This goes to show that even when we ...
