Hey Carpool Crew! 🚗 Whether you’re already thinking about lunch on the ride to school or enjoying a chocolate chip muffin at the kitchen table — I’m Pastor Justin, and I’m so glad you’re here.

We’re continuing our Proverbs for Your School Life series, where we look at wisdom Jesus would’ve memorized as a kid — and how it still helps you with real-life choices today.

Today’s verse is one of the most famous in all of Proverbs:

💡 What does this mean?

Don’t try to be the boss of your own life.

Trusting God means giving Him all your heart, not just some of it.

Straight paths (in Bible times) meant safe paths—God shows us the way that leads to real peace and protection.

✅ In this episode, kids will learn:

What trusting God looks like when school, friends, or emotions get tough

Why Jesus invites us to follow Him step by step—not have it all figured out

How to live like Jesus did: with full trust in His Father

🛹 A great visual? Think of it like this:

📘 Application for today:

Start your day by saying: “God, I trust You. If You want to say something, I’m listening.”

When you’re not sure what to do, don’t fake it — ask a parent, teacher, or someone you trust.

Let God’s Word lead you, not just your feelings.
