Tonight's family reading · Kisumu
The Ten Lepers — a 5-minute devotion for Kisumu families
Luke 17:11-19 · The discipline of coming back to say thank you
Ten men stood at a distance and shouted for mercy. Jesus sent them to the priests, and on the way they were healed. One — a foreigner — turned back, threw himself at Jesus' feet and said thank you.
Families in Kisumu tend to run this one at the dinner table. Read Luke 17:11-19 out loud while the plates are still down, ask the question once, and let the youngest answer first. It takes about five minutes and it does not need anyone to have prepared.
Memory verse
“Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine?”Luke 17:17
Table question
What is one thing from today you have not yet said thank you for?
30-second prayer
Jesus, we are quick to ask and slow to thank. Thank you for today. Amen.
Make it stick: ask the same question again at breakfast tomorrow. Answers change overnight, and hearing that change is how a child learns that the discipline of coming back to say thank you is something you practise, not something you know.
Tomorrow: the persistent widow (Luke 18:1-8). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
