Free Proverbs 3:5 Coloring Page – Trust in the Lord

Description

This printable colouring page features the verse “Trust in the Lord with all your heart…” (Proverbs 3:5) — a powerful piece of wisdom for children to explore through art. It invites kids to reflect on what it means to trust God completely and not lean solely on their own understanding. This is a great resource for Sunday School, homeschool, children’s ministry or faith-based art time.

What’s inside

On this sheet children will find:

• Bold, large text of the phrase “Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Proverbs 3:5” — clear and easy to colour.

• A graphic featuring hands holding up a heart (symbolizing wholehearted trust) with rays of light emanating from it, and a path or hill in the foreground.

• Simple outlines and clear shapes (hands, heart, path, background light beams) suitable for elementary colouring.

• Ample blank space so children can select their colours, decorate the background, add patterns or personalise the image.

Why it’s useful

• Reinforces Bible memory & meaning: The verse encourages complete trust in God rather than relying on one’s own insight.

• Encourages reflection & discussion: Kids can be asked what “trusting with all your heart” means, and how “leaning on your own understanding” might look in everyday life.

• Supports fine motor skills & creative expression: Colouring helps children practice coordination and decision-making as they choose colours and design their picture.

• Works across age groups: Younger children can simply colour and repeat the verse; older children can write or draw one way they will “trust” God this week or one area where they tend to lean on their own understanding instead.

• Perfect for classroom or home use: Use this as part of a lesson on wisdom, faith, daily choices, or as a take-home reminder for children that trusting God matters in all areas of life.

How to use it

1. Print the worksheet on standard paper (A4 or US Letter).

2. Introduce the verse: Read Proverbs 3:5 together: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.”

3. Colouring time: Let children choose the colours for the heart, hands, background rays, path, etc. Encourage them to think: “What does trusting God look like in my life?”

4. Discussion or reflection prompts: After colouring, you can ask:

   • What does it mean to trust God with all your heart?

   • What kinds of things do we sometimes try to understand on our own instead of trusting God?

   • How can you let God guide you this week instead of trying to rely completely on your own ideas?

5. Display or share: Children can hang their completed page in the classroom, at home or give it to someone along with the verse to remind them of trust and reliance on God.

6. Optional extension:

   • Have children write or draw one “trust statement” or “I will trust” goal at the bottom of the sheet (e.g., “I will pray when I’m worried,” or “I will ask God when I don’t know what to do”).

   • Use this sheet alongside a short teaching about how God’s wisdom is greater than ours and how trusting Him leads to guidance.

   • Turn the colouring sheet into a weekly reminder: each child colours one ray or section when they practiced trusting God that week.
