Perspective Shift in Suffering: Trust in God and Walk With God Through Divorce

Season 1, Episode 2300:35:57Published July 8, 2025

Gratitude is not always easy, especially in suffering. In this episode, I sit down with my friend Alana to talk about what it looks like to trust in God when life does not turn out the way you prayed it would. We talk honestly about divorce, disappointment, and the moment your heart realizes some things may not be restored this side of heaven.

Alana shares how a perspective shift helped her keep walking with God in a painful season. We talk about being thankful in the storm, not for the storm. We also talk about how our words shape our hearts, how gratitude can fight pride, and how choosing gratitude can protect your joy when life feels overwhelming.

If you are facing real-life challenges and you need faith encouragement for your faith walk, I hope this conversation meets you with clarity and hope. If you want to share your story or ask a question for a future episode, reach out.
