“Guérison de dix lépreux”
James Tissot

To me, Doctrine and Covenants 101:8 has always been one of the most striking passages in that volume of scripture:
“In the day of their peace they esteemed lightly my counsel; but, in the day of their trouble, of necessity they feel after me.”
The episode in the Savior’s life recorded at Luke 17:11-19 is a clear illustration of that principle — and it’s altogether too humanly familiar.
I doubt that I’m alone in thinking that the Lord’s description applies much too accurately to me.
