“Were not all
10 cleansed . . : but where are
the nine?” (Christ was that
healer, and the one cleansed
leper who returned was a half-
breed . . .. a samaritan!) You
can read the account in Luke
17:11-19.

Could it be that many of us
fall into the category of the
nine?

We are too self-centred to
give thanks where it is due; we
tend to take so many of life’s
blessings for granted.

Our gratitude may be the
kind that is based in the opin-
ion that we are not as ignorant
as others; not as poor; not as
sickly and weak; not as con-
fused. (Some may even be
proud and grateful they are
not as irreligious and sinful as
others!) See Luke 18:9-14. Do
not all of us have room for
more gratitude?

Think of it! All ofus live in a
world we did not create. We

Historian optimistic
about future

Well-known Canadian war historian
Gwynn Dyer says the unprecedented
changes in global politic bode well for
the future.

“In the end, I'm bizarrely optimistic
that things are going the right way,” Dy-

ple last Thursday at Selkirk College.
