You can read this story in Luke 17:11–19.
Illustrations by Thomas S. Child
One day, Jesus was walking through a village. He saw ten men who had a sickness called leprosy. Because the men were sick, they couldn’t be with their families. They had to stay far away from people in the village. Themen asked Jesus for help. They said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.” Jesus healed the ten men. They were so happy! Out of those ten men, only one man stopped to tell Jesus “Thank you!” We can be like the thankful man. We can tell Heavenly Father and Jesus “Thank you!” for our blessings.
