Do you need some quick little gifts which will be useful as well as pretty? These sweet bird and flower coloring bookmarks are really fast to make and are easy to slip into an envelope or in a parcel with another gift, like a book. The coloring page for these bookmarks is available in my free resource library. (Library access instructions are at the bottom of this post.)
And what could be prettier than flowers and sweet little birds, right?
I created these coloring bookmarks just before Christmas for the ESL (English as a second language) class where I help out. We read the Christmas story from the gospel of Luke and gave the students the uncolored versions and let them color the bookmarks in with the pencils we brought along.
The Bible verse on these bookmarks comes from Luke 1:37 –
Nothing spoken by God is impossible.
These bookmarks make perfect Christmas gifts because the featured verse comes from the Christmas story in Luke. This part of the story is where the angel, Gabriel tells Mary that her relative, Elizabeth is now pregnant. This is a miracle because Elizabeth was old and had never had children. But God had promised Elizabeth’s husband that he would have a son, and God was faithful to fulfill the promise – nothing spoken by God is impossible!
I think these bookmarks are also suitable to give at any other time of the year too because it’s always good to be reminded that our God is all-powerful and he is faithful. Make some to give away and keep one or more for yourself!

Why aren’t your words the same as the bible.
Luke 1:37. For with God nothing shall be impossible.
This is the correct scripture from the Bible.
Why are your words different?
Good question Keli. This is from the World English Bible translation. I am trying to use the WEB version of the Bible because that is in the public domain (so I don’t break copyright by using it) 🙂
