More about these Bible coloring pages
During our Bible study last Wednesday, my 9-year-old loved coloring the healing the paralytic coloring page. Each of the six images captures a different moment, from the friends lowering him through the roof to Jesus healing him with a simple command. The moment He said, 'Get up, take your mat and go home.' (Mark 2:11) resonated so much with her. We connected it to how friends can lift us up in tough times. I also noticed my daughter asked questions about how the paralyzed man felt and what it meant to trust Jesus completely. We used colored pencils, and she spent a good hour focusing on her art, which was lovely to see. These pages are great for reinforcing the message of faith and healing in a fun way.
