Carpooling with Jesus: Daily Christian Devotions for Kids and Families

June 19th: Bread from Heaven… and Still Complaining? | | Kids Devotional Carpooling with Jesus


Listen Later

Hey Carpool Crew! Whether you're crashing in the backseat after soccer or helping dad haul in groceries, today’s story is weird, funny, and packed with truth. Imagine getting bread from heaven every day—literally baked by God—and still whining about onions. 🍞🧅 Yep, it happened.

Our verse of the day is Numbers 11:5–6 (CSB):

“We remember the free fish we ate in Egypt, along with the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic. But now our appetite is gone; there’s nothing to look at but this manna!”

God had just rescued His people from Egypt with Red Sea-splitting, sky-guiding, miracle-level power—and now He’s feeding them with manna from the sky. But instead of praising Him, they start complaining… about vegetables.

📍In this episode, kids will learn:

  • What manna really was (miracle bread from God!)

  • Why grumbling makes us miss God’s goodness

  • That Jesus wants us to see the miracles happening now, not just wish for the past

  • How to trade complaints for gratitude—every single day

    🙌 Takeaway Truth: Don’t miss the miracle because you’re craving onions.

    👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Parent Action Step:

    Snap a photo of where you’re listening and tag us on Instagram @carpoolingwithJesus! Let’s spread the good news that God is working even in the small stuff.

    🗣️ Today’s Discussion Question:

    What’s something you’ve complained about recently—and how could you see it differently by focusing on what God is doing right now?
