The Difference Jesus Makes: Trusting Him in Every Situation

What are you struggling with right now?

A little boy sits staring at a framed picture of his father, who has been away on military duty for some time now. The boy begins to cry, and his mother, seeing that he is upset, asks, “What’s wrong?" "I want daddy to come out of the frame," he says.

Have you ever felt like that in your relationship with God, like He’s disconnected from the situations of your life and you want Him to come out of the frame?

Well in the Lord Jesus Christ, that’s exactly what God has done. When Jesus took on human flesh, God stepped out of the frame and dwelled among us. In The Difference Jesus Makes, Pastor H.B. Charles Jr. walks us through stories found in the Gospel of Mark to highlight the truth that Jesus is present in all things and Lord over all things, including the details of our lives.

No matter what we are facing, we can trust Jesus to care for us, even if he doesn’t fix our every problem. The Difference Jesus Makes shows us who Jesus is, why we can trust Him, and what that looks like day to day.

What are you struggling with right now?

Is it a trial with much suffering? You can trust Jesus when you are engulfed in a raging storm.

Is it an addiction? A stronghold, a bad habit you just can't seem to break? You can trust Jesus when you are bound by evil that will not let you go.

Is it illness? Physical or emotional pain? You can trust Jesus when the doctors announce they have done everything they can.

Is it an unanswered prayer or a longing of your soul? You can trust Jesus when you are facing a dead end.

Is it financial distress? You can trust Jesus when you have overwhelming needs and limited resources. 

No matter what is going on in our lives right now, we can turn to Jesus. This is the message of encouragement Pastor H. B. Charles, Jr. brings as he walks through stories found in the gospel of Mark in the Bible. He highlights the truth that Jesus is truly Lord over everything, and when we bring our problems to Him and trust Him to take care of things, He will make a difference in our lives like no one else can.
