October 24th: Scared People Won’t Like Me? | Kids Devotional for Kids Carpooling with Jesus

Hey Carpool Crew, I’m Pastor Justin, and today we’re talking about something a lot of kids (and adults!) feel when they walk into someplace new—school, camp, church, or even a new neighborhood. That question pops up: What if people don’t like me? It’s a real fear, but here’s something even more real—Jesus loves the real you, and the right people will too. In this episode, we dive into Psalm 139:14, which says, “I will praise You because I have been remarkably and wondrously made.” You were created by God on purpose, with your personality, voice, smile, and laugh—all designed by Him. When we try to change ourselves just to fit in, we’re hiding the person God made on purpose. You’ll also hear the story of Ava from Wisconsin, who went to a new camp and tried to act like someone else just to fit in. But when she finally opened up and was honest, she found a real friend—and discovered that being herself was enough all along. If you’ve ever been afraid that people won’t like you, remember this: Jesus already loves you completely. The right people will like the real you too. You don’t have to perform or pretend—you just have to be who God made you to be. Before you go, talk about this together: Have you ever felt pressure to act different just to fit in—and how did that feel for you? And remember, no matter where you are or how you’re listening, God loves you. 🔗 Listen & Subscribe 🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/4gUygJo 🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ZQq3iq 📺 YouTube: https://bit.ly/YoutubeCPWJ 💻 Podbean: https://bit.ly/PodbeanCPWJ 📱 Instagram: https://bit.ly/InstagramCPWJ 🚗 Facebook Community: https://bit.ly/CPWJFB Christian kids podcast, Bible stories for kids, kids devotional podcast, Jesus podcast for children, short Christian podcast for kids, podcast for kids in the car, faith-based podcast for children, Christian content for school mornings, daily Bible podcast for kids, morning devotions for families, Bible podcast for elementary kids, Jesus stories kids love, teaching kids about faith, helping kids follow Jesus, Christian parenting resources, raising Christian children, encouraging Christian kids, learning about Jesus for kids, Christian media for families.
