Minister's
study
BY THE
REVEREND
ROBERT O. BALL,
NORTH STREET
UNITED CHURCH
Another THANKSGIVING
weekend is over. For many,
no doubt, it's been a time for
family reunions and tradi-
tional celebrations of festive
eating. Churches throughout
the country have sung their
harvest hymns, and
reflected upon sermons of
gratitude.
No doubt one familiar
story in the New Testament,
(Luke 17:11-17) has been
worked over again. It's hard
to pass it by, because it still
speaks to us.
It's too simple, however, to
see the story of the cleansing
of the lepers as a story of one
who was thankful and nine
who were riot. Life is not
usually lived in "blacks and
whites". The problem is
more subtle. Surely they
were all thankful. Surely you
would be too, if you were
suddenly freed from some
disease or disability that had
prevented you from doing,,
what you want, going where
you want, or being accepted
into family and social
circles. Surely they were all
thankful.
The difference seems
more like this. Nine were
thankful FOR. One was
thankful TO. Nine were run-
ning, jumping, singing and
dancing ... sincerely
thankful FOR their good for-
tune. But one was thankful
TO someone. One felt in-
debted, and could not dance
and sing until one had
thrown oneself down into a
gesture of gratitude and obe-
dience.
Traditional thanksgivings
are a thanksgiving FOR. On-
ly we can make them, a
thanksgiving TO. To 'return
thanks' before meals is, an
old' phrase. It's a good
phrase. It catches the true
meaning of thanksgiving TO
God for His goodness and
Grace, His Promise and His
Presence.
Many will always be
thankful FOR ... and be con-
tent. Others will catch the
meaning of being thankful
TO .,. and enjoy a deeper
dimension to their lives,
reflected in their sense of
commitment to God, to wor-
ship, and to responsibility to
each other.
Someone has written:
"When someone sends you
something, you look at the
gift card to see who sent it.
This is only natural. But
there is a gift card that goes
with everything we have, if
we only look to see and that
card reads like this: WITH
INFINITE LOVE, YOURS
FAITHFULLY, GOD.."
Be thankftit TO and join to
Worship Him.
