Caring for Animals Coloring Page
National “Love Your Pet Day” is Tuesday of this week, which also happens to be our son David’s 26th birthday. That’s fitting, as he has always had a soft spot in his heart for our furry friends. Which is why I’m sharing the Caring for Animals Coloring Page below.
The picture on the right shows David at age three with our dog Jenny. They were constant companions. Even as a puppy, Jenny was so patient. She let David cart her around everywhere and was fiercely protective of him.
The photo below shows David with Penelope, a rescue dog he and his wife adopted a couple of years ago. She’s a sweetheart, too, but now it’s David’s turn to be patient. Penny was bad about running off every time she got a chance when she first came to live with them, and it usually fell on David to track her down when she disappeared.
Anyway, I thought “Love Your Pet” would be a good theme for our Scripture Sunday coloring page this week, as the Bible makes it clear that God considers kindness to animals a very good trait, indeed.
“The righteous care for the needs of their animals.” – Proverbs 12:10
This design comes from my gratitude journal, Count Your Blessings. It joins my growing collection of devotional journals. There are twelve titles in all now.
“Bless the LORD, O my soul,” the psalmist writes, “and forget none of His benefits.” That’s good advice for all of us. We should always be mindful of the many ways in which God has blessed us.
This journal is designed with that goal in mind. You may use its pages to remember the Lord’s mercies and be grateful for them, to count His blessings and name them one by one, to track His faithfulness to you through the past and, by doing so, to be encouraged to trust Him with the future.

Hi, Jennifer.
Thank you for sharing your recipes with us! I made the Chickenless Tortilla Soup and the Spicy Moroccan Stew and loved them both. ❣️ I noticed one error in the Tortillas Soup recipe – it calls for cilantro, but in the directions, it says to add the oregano (should be cilantro?).
I added the juice of half a lime to my bowl of Moroccan Stew and liked the additional flavor. This is the first time I have really enjoyed eating chickpeas 🤗. It makes me happy! Thank you!! I plan to try your other recipes, but these two are wonderful on my Lean Bodies weight loss diet.
I’m loving your blog, and I’m continuing to pray for you, especially during this cancer journey. You are in our loving Father’s hands – the safest place to be 💞🙏
Thanks so much, Carol. I appreciate your prayers and am glad you’ve enjoyed the recipes. Also, you are 100% right about the herbs in the tortilla soup — it should’ve read cilantro in both places. I’ve corrected the instructions now. Thanks for bringing that error to my attention so other readers won’t be scratching their heads, trying to figure out which I really meant!
