BONUS: August 16th When I Am Afraid, I Will Trust in God | Kids Devotional Carpooling with Jesus

Season 2 Episode 175 Published 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Description

Hey Carpool Crew! 🚗 Maybe you’re hanging out at the breakfast table, planning your weekend, or still lounging in your pajamas — welcome to a special Saturday episode of Carpooling with Jesus!

Today we’re talking about something everyone feels sometimes: fear. Even the bravest people — David in the Bible, me (Pastor Justin), and yes, even you — get scared. But here’s the good news: you don’t have to face fear alone.

Our verse today is short but powerful:
👉 “When I am afraid, I will trust in you.” — Psalm 56:3 (CSB)

David wrote this while he was running for his life, afraid and unsure of what was next. Instead of pretending to be strong, he prayed, “I’m afraid, but I trust you.” That’s real courage.

If Jesus were sitting next to you today, He’d remind you: “I see your fear. I know it feels big. But I’m bigger — and I’m right here with you.”

💡 In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why it’s okay to admit your fears to God.

  • How trusting Him is the bravest move you can make.

  • Real-life ways to be courageous, even when you feel scared.

  • A story about my daughter Everly learning to be brave on a big waterslide!

Remember: Bravery isn’t about faking strength — it’s about trusting God to give you strength right where you are.

👨‍👩‍👧 Parent Tip: This weekend, share this episode with other parents at church or in your Facebook group. Encourage another family with this reminder of God’s truth.

📍 Family Question: What’s one way you can be brave with God this week, even if you’re scared?
