1 Kings 17:10-16 -Elijah and the Widow Devotional Drawing Page

In 1 Kings 17:10–16, the prophet Elijah meets a widow during a time of famine and asks her for bread and water. This devotional drawing page captures the quiet moment of trust as she offers what little she has. The simple starter illustration invites you to draw the rest of the scene and reflect on God’s provision in difficult seasons.

What’s Included

Printable devotional drawing page (PDF), Scripture reference shown on the page (1 Kings 17:10–16), Simple black-and-white starter illustration, and Large blank drawing space to complete the scene.

What You See on This Page

At the bottom of the page, Elijah stands facing the widow. He is shown in simple robes and sandals, gently receiving a small loaf of bread. The widow stands opposite him, holding a jar in her other hand, likely representing the oil mentioned in the passage. Their expressions are calm and attentive, capturing a moment of exchange and faith.

Above them is a large open space, intentionally left blank. This is where you draw the rest of the setting — perhaps the widow’s home, the drying land during the famine, her son nearby, or the jar and flour that did not run empty. The page provides just enough detail to begin, while leaving room for personal reflection and creativity.

Why Devotional Drawing?

Drawing slows us down. As you sketch the scene, you consider the details of the story — the hunger, the risk, the obedience, and the promise. This kind of Bible drawing activity helps deepen Scripture reflection, strengthens memory, and invites personal connection with God’s Word.
