Jesus Heals Ten Men

How many times when we are in trouble, or when we are sick, we will humbly ask Jesus to help us. After we resolve our problem or when we are healed, we totally forget about him just like the other 9 men.
Dear Jesus, help me to remember that you are the only one who always help me and may I remember to sing praises to you all the time.

Luke 17:11-19
As Jesus made his way to Jerusalem, he went along the border between Samaria and Galilee.
He was going into a village when he was met by ten men suffering from a dreaded skin disease. They stood at a distance and shouted, "Jesus! Master! Have pity on us!"
Jesus saw them and said to them, "Go and let the priests examine you."

On the way they were made clean.
When one of them saw that he was healed, he came back, praising God in a loud voice. He threw himself to the ground at Jesus' feet and thanked him. The man was a Samaritan.

Jesus spoke up, "There were ten men who were healed, where are the other nine? Why is this foreigner the only one who came back to give thanks to God?"

And Jesus said to him, "Get up and go, your faith has made you well."
