Gratitude & Healing

In the story of the ten lepers, only one returned to give thanks, and Jesus told him, “Your faith has made you well.” This reminds us that gratitude is more than a response to blessing; it is a path to deeper healing and restoration. Gratitude shifts our focus from scarcity to abundance, opening our hearts to God’s blessings and calling us to live joyfully and generously.

Generosity is the natural outflow of a grateful heart. When we give—our time, resources, and presence—we join in God’s work of restoration, bringing healing and hope to others. Together, as a church, we reflect God’s abundant love by creating spaces where the broken are restored and the lonely find belonging.

The one who returned to say thank you experienced more than physical healing; he was restored to his community and his purpose. In the same way, when we embrace gratitude and generosity, we step into God’s abundant life—not just for ourselves, but for the sake of the world. Through gratitude, we are healed. Through generosity, we become healers.
