Dear Friend:
As Jesus entered the village ten lepers met Him but kept their distance. They said, "Jesus! Master, have mercy on us!" Jesus looked at them and said, "Go. Show yourselves to the priest." Obeying Him they turned and ran and were healed. Then only one turned back to thank Jesus for healing him, and fell at Jesus' feet. Jesus said, "Were not ten healed? Where are the other nine? Only you have returned thanks to God. Arise and go your way, your faith has made you whole." Luke 17:12-14

Paul said, "Three times I have pled with the Lord to remove my handicap. Each time the Lord said, `My grace is sufficient for you. For My strength is made perfect in weakness.' So I will now boast of my weakness for I am glad to be a living demonstration of Christ's power instead of showing off my own power and ability. For Jesus' sake I am content with weakness, insults, hardships, persecutions and disasters. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:8-10

"Now we look in a mirror and see a blurred reflection, but someday we will see God and understand why things happened as they did just as clearly as God sees right now." 1 Corinthians 13:12
