1 Samuel 16:7 Coloring Page – God Looks at the Heart Printable

This Scripture coloring page highlights a powerful moment in Israel’s history.

When Samuel was sent to anoint the next king, he assumed it would be one of Jesse’s tall, impressive sons. But God corrected him: > “For Yahweh sees not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart.” — 1 Samuel 16:7 (WEB)

This design visually reflects that truth with: A crown symbolising kingship, Hearts representing inner character, Floral details symbolising growth, Emphasis on LORD and heart, and A circular reflective border for mindful colouring.

This verse reminds us that God evaluates differently than the world does.

Devotional Reflection

The world measures: Appearance, Strength, Popularity, and Talent.

God measures: Integrity, Faithfulness, Humility, and Trust.

David did not look like a king. But his heart was aligned with God.

This verse encourages children and adults alike: You are not defined by how others see you.

The crown in the design reminds us: God often chooses the unexpected.

The hearts scattered throughout represent the inner life — the part only God fully sees.
