364. Today I am grateful for “Thank You’s”

I love the story in the book of Luke where Jesus healed ten lepers and only one returned to thank him. Sometimes it seems that it is only about one in ten people who will say thank you. I can buy wedding gifts for ten people and probably expect one person to send a thank you card. I can give ten people a ride somewhere and probably expect one person to say thank you. I would hope it would be more though. I hope that I am always quick to thank those who help me in any way. I am grateful for the word “thank you” and for those who show their appreciation and for the opportunity I have to show my appreciation.
