Running After Righteousness

Happy Sunday!! The coloring page I’ve prepared for you this week encourages us to run after righteousness. It features a passage packed with promise:

“Whoever pursues righteousness and love finds life, prosperity and honor.” (Proverbs 21:21, NIV)

Aren’t those great benefits?

I hope you’ll enjoy coloring this printable as much as I enjoyed creating it. I’ve been sketching these verses while my husband reads aloud to me and the children in the evening.

Need more free printable coloring pages? You can download any of the other designs I’ve published by following this link: Free Christian Coloring Pages. Or check out my line of devotional journals. With twelve titles in the series, there’s something here for everyone.

Ideas for using these coloring pages:

Help your kids stay quiet and still in church by letting them color Scripture during the Sunday sermon. (Older kids might rather take notes with this printable)
My children and I enjoy coloring these sheets together while my husband reads aloud to us in the evening. (For a special treat, I let them use my Prismacolor pencils.)
I give them to my children during school time so they can color at the table while I work with their older siblings, and vice versa. (Since each of them has their own devotional journal, I’ll sometimes just assign pages out of that for them to fill in or color — that way, they get some handwriting practice, too!)
I do one of several things with the pages once they’ve finished coloring them (and none of them wind up on our refrigerator): Sometimes we send them in letters to penpals. I might glue one into a child’s scrapbook or tack it on his bulletin board. Our littlest guys have even been known to frame them as a creative arts entry for the State Fair — there’s nothing like winning a ribbon and cash premium to motivate them to do their best job coloring future pages!
