Ten lepers asked Jesus for a cure. They cried, "Jesus, Master, have pity on us!". Jesus sent them to the priests. As they went, they were cured.

Only one returned to give thanks. He returned glorifying God in a loud voice. He knelt before Jesus. He was a Samaritan. He was a foreigner and hated by the Jewish people. He was the one that Jesus used to teach about giving thanks.

The hated foreigners of our time could be the Islamic people who make up twenty two percent of the world’s population. The clergy of the Islamic religion have condemned the terrorist acts of destroying the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The clergy of the Islamic religion has said that these terrorists are not living out the religion of Islam. They are going against the religion of Islam. The Holy Scriptures of Islam is the Koran. The Koran speaks all about peace and helping.

The terrorists quoted the Koran. That does not mean that they are living out their religion. We as Christians have done terrible things in the past in the name of God.

The Islamic religion can teach us how to truly show our thanks to God. They truly live the psalm of today: The Lord has revealed to the nations his saving power.

There is nothing more beautiful than going to the beach on Rodney French Boulevard and seeing the sunset. The beauty leaves me speechless.

The people of New York gathered in Yankee stadium for a prayer service after the tragedy.

Bet Midler ran out and sang with so much feeling, "You are my hero. You are the wind beneath my wings." Everybody in the stadium and those watching on TV couldn’t hold back the tears.

A van parked in front of Shaw’s Market yesterday morning. An Asian boy with no arms and one leg got out and struggled to put a blanket on the food cart for his sister to sit. It was so touching to see.

All these feelings of awe, emotion, and being moved are what the true Muslims feel about God. They pray five times a day. They fast. They do every thing for God. God is everything to them.
