Thankful When Life Is Hard | Gratitude and Grit | Saul Gonzalez

In this episode, you’ll hear a powerful message on gratitude with grit—being thankful not just when life is good, but when life is painful, unfair, and confusing. Pastor shares personal stories of growing up poor, standing in line for government cheese, wearing cheap shoes from Payless, and learning to let go of pride and receive help with a grateful heart.
