In November 2008, we went on a sea cruise that was planned the previous year. I love to travel, and this was quite a trip. It started with me traveling to Philadelphia via Amtrak; my biggest luggage was left at the train station being that we were traveling from Philly to Baltimore.
I spent the night with my traveling friend, Agnes, and the next morning, we were on Amtrak headed to Baltimore to get on the Royal Caribbean ship. We were on the water three days going out and three coming in; a lot of water. I am so thankful to God for allowing me to be able to travel. It was a great cruise which was a total of eleven days.
I love to thank those who the Lord uses to be a blessing to me. Example: I thank the Lord using Agnes to be a blessing to me. We never know who God will use to bless us in various ways. Remember this: All the blessings are initiated (ordained) and come from the Lord; His Spirit moves on the heart of others to give, and God gets the glory!
Now it happened as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, who stood afar off. And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” So, when He saw them, He said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.”
And so it was that as they went, they were cleansed. And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God, and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan.
So, Jesus answered and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?” And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”(Luke 17:11-18).
Thanks to all of you who have been a blessing to me in so many ways. Thank you Lord for all You’ve done for me and for using others. I’m Grateful!
