We never
learn his name, but he's my hero. He starts off as an outcast twice over, but his
faith "makes him whole." Moreover, the guy is so filled with gratitude
that he falls on his face. Hollering for mercy and falling on my face:
That's about my speed.
And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
And
when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the
priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
And
one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a
loud voice glorified God, and fell down on his face at his feet, giving
him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.
And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.
Luke 17:11-19
