If we’re honest, we all have something to be grateful for: breath in our bodies, sun on our faces, a warm bowl of soup in our bellies, the sound of our children laughing in the other room…
And then there are the even more obvious reasons to be thankful: job promotions, new babies, wishes fulfilled.
But what about the things we don’t feel thankful for? Could there be any room for gratitude there? Any purpose or meaning behind the struggles we didn’t hope for?

0:10.3 | mama to 10, Bible, believing Christian. And on today's episode, which is going to be short and sweet, |
0:15.1 | I want to talk about something that's very pertinent for this week, at least in the U.S. |
