Choosing Gratitude in Hard Places

Choosing gratitude in hard places is not natural. Hard places don’t have to harden us, though. We can see God’s hand in the midst.

Choosing Gratitude in Pain

Walking through the doorway of pain we find that God is there with us and He chose pain to give us life.

Choosing Gratitude in Sorrow

Grief and sadness do not have to steal our joy. Finding solace in God’s word helps us to see our problems from a different perspective.

Choosing Gratitude at all times

Ultimately, gratitude is a choice formed in hard places. We would not appreciate blessings had we not first visited hard places.

Listen in to this episode and learn how to be set free from the prison of ingratitude.

1 Thessalonians 5:18

“Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
