Day 123 Where are the nine?

Jesus heals ten lepers. Only one returns to give thanks to God. Jesus asks..."where are the nine?" The absurd part of this one man returning is that he is the Samaritan. In the "good samaritan" story we have a parable. The healing of the lepers is a real story. In both Jesus expands our thinking about crossing barriers to offer compassion. What barriers do we need to cross today? Are we in any way like the nine?
