More about these Bible coloring pages

When my kids colored the Elijah Widow coloring page, they were amazed by the story of God's provision. The images include Elijah speaking to the widow, her jar of flour, and the jug of oil. My 9-year-old asked how God could make the oil last so long, and we talked about faith and trust. Remember when Elijah assured her that 'the jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not run dry' (1 Kings 17:14)? It’s such a comforting message for kids. We used crayons and markers, and I loved seeing their creativity shine through. These pages make for a fun activity during our Bible study or even a quiet afternoon at home.
