About this coloring page
1 John 4:19 is short and easy to remember: "We love him, because he first loved us" in the King James Version. This Bible verse coloring page has the words in bubble letters inside a rounded frame, with a heart in each corner and the reference at the bottom.
The letter of 1 John speaks about love again and again, and this verse sits in a chapter that says God is love. Its point is about order: love for God and for others is a response to being loved first. Children understand this from family life, where they are loved long before they can do anything in return. With eight short words, the verse is a good first memory verse for preschoolers, and the hearts suit Valentine crafts in church groups or a card for someone special.
