May 20 | Choose People Over Your Own Comfort | Devotional for Kids Carpooling with Jesus Kids Devotional

Hey Carpool Crew! In today’s episode, Pastor Justin talks about a moment in Mark chapter 6 when Jesus and His disciples were completely exhausted and desperately needed rest. But when they arrived at a quiet place, thousands of people were already waiting for them.Instead of getting frustrated or sending everyone away, Jesus responded with compassion. Even though He was tired, He chose to care for people anyway.This episode helps kids understand that kindness and love are often most important when we don’t feel like giving them. Whether it’s helping a sibling, listening to a friend, or pitching in at home, Jesus teaches us to put people before our own comfort.Kids will learn:Why Jesus chose compassion even when He was exhaustedHow to help others when you feel tired or frustratedWhy kindness matters most in everyday momentsPractical ways to serve family members and friendsHow following Jesus sometimes means putting others firstScripture Referenced:Mark 6:34 (CSB)Today’s challenge:Before saying “no” when someone asks for help this week, pause and ask yourself: “How can I help?” Then choose one kind thing you can do for someone else without complaining or making a big deal about it.Special shoutout to Logan from Trussville, Alabama.
