About this resource

A printable pause with Scripture

The tree, table and outward road give participants three movements to draw: seeking, welcome and repair.

The page is intentionally spacious. Read the passage before drawing, then use the unfinished lines as a beginning rather than a puzzle with one correct answer. You may add words, symbols, colour or a written prayer alongside the picture.

This printable works for private reflection, a family table, an older children’s group or a quiet church activity. Give people permission to leave some space untouched. The aim is careful attention to Scripture, not a polished piece of art.

Passage context

Zacchaeus is a wealthy chief tax collector within an extractive imperial system. Jesus’ public welcome creates a moment in which money and harm are directly addressed.

Devotional introduction

The empty chair represents welcome, while the unfinished pathway insists that the table must lead toward neighbours affected by exploitation.

Reflect

Grace is not a private feeling that leaves unjust gains untouched. Zacchaeus names generous redistribution and restitution as part of his changed life.

Questions to explore

  1. What does Jesus’ welcome interrupt?
  2. How does Zacchaeus make repentance material?
  3. Whose needs and voice should guide restitution?

Prayer prompt

Jesus who seeks the lost, welcome us into truthful change. Expose harm, loosen our grip on unjust gain and give us courage for generous, accountable repair. Amen.

Next step

Add one place setting and one outward step. Identify a debt, unfair benefit or neglected repair you can begin addressing.

Use it your way

Ideas for different settings

Personal reflection

Read the passage twice, complete only the lines that help you pay attention, and finish with the prayer prompt.

Families

Let each person respond differently. Compare observations rather than artwork, and make explaining the drawing optional.
