April 23 is the anniversary of the day I first met my husband (way back in 1986).
It also happens to be “Lovers Day” (celebrated in Spain and Barcelona). How perfect is that?
So in honor of both events, I chose “Put on Love” as the theme of this week’s coloring page.
It comes from the passage in Colossians:
“Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful.” (Colossians 3:14-15)

I’m so thankful for the man I married, and I am eternally grateful that God brought him into my life, 31 years ago today!
If you like to color, then come back again next Sunday for a new one. Or you can look here to download any of the pages I’ve published in the past.
If you’d prefer a bound collection, check out my Color the Word series. These richly-detailed, Scripture-based coloring books were designed with grown-ups in mind, but can be enjoyed by all ages. They’re even available in Spanish!
For those who enjoy journaling as well as coloring, my devotional journals offer the best of both worlds.

April 26, 2017 at 10:02 amHi Jennifer (great name – my middle name too)
A friend sent me a WhatsApps image entitled “Praying For Your Children from Head to Toe” which of course led me to check out your website – I was very inspired.
On Sunday (23rd April 2017), my husband and I celebrated our 29th wedding anniversary and so great to know you and your husband met on that date two years before we were married. I learnt that the 23rd April happens to be ‘Lovers Day’ in Spain. You learn something new every day.
Our family is very large. My mum is the eldest of 12; my Dad is the 8th (and last boy) of 9 children; I am the youngest of 7 with 4 children and grandchildren of my own, with another brother also having four children and another brother having 6. One of my sisters has 7 children. But it’s really great when my 11 year old granddaughter calls me “grandma” when we’re out and people are shocked.
Great website. Great reading and definitely will be back for more.
Bless you and your family,
Karen (from the UK)
