May 14 | Jesus Shows Up in the Storm | Devotional for Kids Carpooling with Jesus Kids Devotional

Hey Carpool Crew! In today’s episode, Pastor Justin shares the powerful story of Jesus walking on water during a terrifying storm in Matthew 14. The disciples were exhausted, afraid, and convinced they were alone in the middle of the chaos. But Jesus came to them right in the middle of the storm and said: “Have courage. It is I. Don’t be afraid.” — Matthew 14:27 (CSB)

This episode helps kids understand that Jesus does not wait for life to calm down before He comes close. He meets us in the middle of fear, anxiety, stress, and uncertainty.

Whether your child is nervous about school, scared at night, stressed about a test, worried about fitting in, or carrying fear they haven’t talked about yet, this devotional reminds them that Jesus is with them in the middle of what feels overwhelming.

Pastor Justin also gives kids three simple things they can do when fear shows up:

• Whisper the name of Jesus
• Talk to a trusted grown-up
• Repeat Scripture when fear starts taking over

One Thing for the Ride: Jesus shows up right in the middle of what scares you.

This Christian podcast for kids helps families start conversations about faith, fear, courage, prayer, and trusting Jesus in everyday life.
