Hi beautiful ladies! I wanted to share a praise report with you all. In December, the Lord reminded me the importance of obedience. I’ve been holding on to this assignment for years now but it never felt like the right time to move forward.. until this past December. I finally said YES and launched a faith based online boutique last month. THE LORD IS FAITHFUL!!! 💓✝️🌸📖🎀 josiejae.com

Luke 17:11–19 I want you to picture it for a moment. Jesus is walking. Not rushing. Not distracted. Just moving with purpose… And while He’s on this journey, ten lepers — see Him from a distance. They know the rules.They know they can’t get close.They know they’re viewed as unclean, unwanted, untouchable. But desperation will make you lift your voice even when life has told you to stay quiet. And so they cry out: Jesus, Master… have mercy on us! There are cries that heaven cannot ignore.And othis was one of them. But instead of laying hands on them…Instead of stopping…Instead of doing it the “expected” way… Jesus gives them a simple instruction: “Go show yourselves to the priests.” ONE SIMPLE INSTRUCTION 👏👏👏👏 What simple instruction have the Lord gave you? Did you obey YET? And here’s what moves me every time: They obeyed. Broken, hurting, rejected…but they still obeyed. And the Bible says: As they went… they were healed. Not when they prayed.Not when they cried.Not when they asked.Not when they shouted. They were healed as they obeyed. But here’s where the story shifts. Ten were healed…but only one came back. Only one turned around. Only one said, Wait… I can’t just keep walking like nothing happened. It was Only one refused to move forward without giving honor. Chileeee He came back. He bowed low and He fell at Jesus feet. He lifted his voice and said THANK YOU. And Jesus asked the question that pierces the heart: Were there not ten? Where are the nine? My Godddddd and this is where God started dealing with me. Because heaven keeps count. Whewwww Heaven knows who returns. Heaven knows who remembers. Healing is good… miracles are wonderful… blessings are beautiful… But God is looking for the ones who COME BACK. The ones who return with THANKSGIVING. BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS THANKSGIVING IS NOT ABOUT YOU, IT’S NOT ABOUT HOW GOOD YOU ARE OR EVEN HOW BAD OF A MISTAKE IT WAS THAT YOU MADE. BUT THANKSGIVING is ALL ABOUT JESUS. The nine received healing…but only the one was made whole. Wholeness belongs to the ones who return. And when he worshiped, Jesus said something powerful:

Repeat after me…🗣️🗣️🗣️🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Father, in the name of Jesus,Today, I return to say thank You. I am the one who comes back.I am the one who remembers. I am the one who bows at Your feet.I am the one who returns to say, “Lord, thank You.” Lord, I thank You for life. I thank You for strength. I thank You for mercy. I thank You for breath in my body. I thank You that You woke me up with purpose. Thank You for covering me.Thank You for keeping me.Thank You for protecting my mind.Thank You for guarding my spirit.Thank You for holding me together. Because truth is…Life could’ve broke me and even crushed me. The enemy wanted to take me out…BUT GOD.🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Lord, thank You for keeping Your hand on my children.Thank You for keeping Your hand on my family.Thank You for watching over them day and night.Thank You for surrounding them with Your protection.Thank You that no weapon formed against them shall prosper.

Thank You for the battles You fought for me.Thank You for the tears You wiped away.Thank You for the storms You brought me through.Thank You for every valley You carried me through. I thank You for every mountain You helped me climb.I thank You for every “no” that protected me.I thank You for every “yes” that blessed me.I thank You for every open door.I thank You for every closed door. Thank You for forgiveness.Thank You for compassion.Thank You for second chances.Thank You for Your patience with me.Thank You for Your hand on my life.

It could’ve been another way… Lord, I return to say thank You.Thank You for Your goodness.Thank You for Your faithfulness.Thank You for Your love.Thank You for Your presence.
