Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and tomorrow’s a big day… Thanksgiving! I don’t know about you, but I’m already thinking about what I’m going to eat. Pumpkin pie, mashed potatoes, all of it! But today, we’re talking about something even better — those “ah moments” when everything just feels right.

You know the ones — that first sip of hot chocolate on a cold morning, or the first bite of your favorite pizza when it’s warm and cheesy. You smile, your heart feels happy, and you just think, “Ah.” Those moments remind us that God made us to experience joy.

In Psalm 34:8, it says, “Taste and see that the Lord is good.”

This verse isn’t just about food — it’s about noticing how good God is in every part of life. Every time you laugh, smell cookies baking, or see a sunset, you’re getting a taste of His goodness. When David wrote this psalm, he was actually running for his life — but even then, he stopped to say, “God is good.”

If Jesus were sitting next to you on the couch or in the car, I think He’d say, “Slow down. Notice the good things I’ve given you — your family, your favorite meal, the sunshine. Enjoy them. They’re gifts from Me.”

So here’s your challenge today: find one “ah moment.” Maybe it’s a smell, a laugh, or something that just feels peaceful. When you find it, pause and say, “Thank you, God. You are good.” Because when you notice the small things, you’ll start to see that God’s goodness is everywhere.

Before you go, talk about this together: What’s something that made you say “ah” recently, and how could you thank God for it?

And remember, no matter where you are or how you’re listening, God loves you.
