About this resource

A printable pause with Scripture

This one-page devotional drawing printable helps readers stay with Philemon 1:8–14 through an unfinished Bible scene inspired by An Appeal Instead of Coercion.

Paul has authority to command but chooses an appeal, refusing to make Philemon’s good action feel forced. The page leaves generous open space so children and adults can complete the scene with colour, background details or meaningful symbols while the passage is read slowly.

A simple response for the week is: Where you hold power, replace one demand with a clear request that leaves room for a genuine response. The drawing is intentionally incomplete, inviting attention and imagination without requiring polished artwork.
