About this resource

A printable pause with Scripture

The road and map are deliberately incomplete. They offer a beginning for people facing change while keeping the focus on faithful direction, not the fantasy of total control.

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

Joshua 1 follows the death of Moses. God commissions Joshua to lead Israel, repeatedly calling him to strength and courage, careful attention to the law and confidence that God will be with him.

Devotional introduction

Joshua stands at a real threshold: an old season has ended, responsibility has changed hands and the road ahead carries weight. The incomplete route makes space to consider courage without pretending the entire journey is visible.

Reflect

Let the map remain partial. The passage does not give Joshua control of every future event; it gives him a word to keep, a calling to enter and a presence to trust.

Questions to explore

  1. What transition or responsibility currently feels larger than your confidence?
  2. How does God’s instruction shape the direction of courage here?
  3. What is the next faithful marker rather than the whole route?

Prayer prompt

God who goes with your people, meet me at this threshold. Give me courage shaped by your word, honesty about the difficulty and faithfulness for the next step. Amen.

Next step

Add one obstacle and one milestone to the printable. Write your next faithful action on the milestone and complete it before trying to solve the whole road.

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.
