The Healing of Ten Lepers (Guérison de dix lépreux), James Tissot, c.1886 - Brooklyn Museum

And one of them, realizing he had been healed,
returned, glorifying God in a loud voice;
and he fell at the feet of Jesus and thanked him.

In his homily for the Twenty-eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Fr. Stephen Hamilton, reflects upon Jesus’ healing of the ten lepers in the Gospel of Luke. Here we are encouraged by the leper who returned to Jesus to praise God that by avoiding distraction we can possess the self-awareness to recognize God’s work in our lives.
