A tranquil heart and rotten bones + Proverbs 14:30 printable coloring page

Around our house, a lot of times we’re just surviving and trying to curb behavior, but sometimes we slow down and try to examine our hearts. We try to understand why we’re acting the way we, and then ask Jesus to adjust us.

We are currently talking about this verse, so I thought I’d share it with you today!

In this illustration, I wanted to show that a tranquil heart isn’t the result of tranquil situations. We’re always bombarded with things that will challenge our contentment. The heart in the picture is insulated against these things because of her focus. It’s upward, not on what’s going on around her.

Here are some questions you might ask about this verse:

  1. What makes a heart tranquil?
  2. What does a tranquil heart do for your body, your flesh?
  3. What is an example of envy in your life?
  4. What kind of things tempt you to envy?
  5. How does envy “rot the bones”? Do you think this is a physical or spiritual reality?
"A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh by envy rots the bones." Proverbs 14:30 Bible verse coloring page

I'm going to be introducing new prints from my new I'm going to be introducing new prints from my newest print collection over the next few weeks. The gorgeous "Be Thou My Vision" hymn has always been one of my bestselling hymns , so I decided to add an additional version to my shop. This hymn was translated into English in 1905 by Mary Elizabeth Byrne (July 2, 1880 – January 19, 1931) from the Old Irish Hymn, "Bí Thusa 'mo Shúile."

I'm going to be introducing new prints from my new I'm going to be introducing new prints from my newest print collection over the next few weeks. Today, meet my print of the 1907 hymn "Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee" by Henry Van Dyke. Does anyone else immediately have the amazing Sister Act 2 version of this in their head? 

I've never done an abstract, layered watercolor design around a hymn, but I really love how this turned out. I wanted it to look like a stained glass window in a church, but with a not-so-literal take. 

Mortals, join the mighty chorus,
Which the morning stars began;
God's own love is reigning o’er us,
Joining people hand in hand.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife;
Joyful music leads us sunward
In the triumph song of life.

I'm going to be introducing new prints from my new I'm going to be introducing new prints from my newest print collection over the next few weeks. Today, meet my watercolor nature color wheel and color mixing chart! 

Each little creature and plant in the color wheel was hand-painted and then scanned and edited to fit in its slice of color. This is inspired by my watercolor classes, where I love to give an introduction to color theory. The second print is a simple watercolor mixing chart and shows the beautiful colors you can create just by mixing a few basic colors together! 

Lastly, there is also a sticker version of the nature color wheel!
