Simon expects a visit from a king and a royal reward for his hospitality, but when a beggar turns up at his door instead, he learns the satisfaction of giving. This description may be from another edition of this product.
Fabulous, colorful pictures. This book is a great picture of what it means to help others and in so doing, ministering to Jesus Himself. In earnestly seeking the strange visitor, he gives of himself and finds his salvation and what really matters in the end. Lovely!
run to the Savior!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
To me the book is saying run to the Savior for this world is fleeting with its pleasures and harsh realities and forsake your worldly goods and give to the lame, poor and lonely for if one asks and gives both will be rewarded fruitfully. Note at the end of the book the rich man kneels before the cradle of the infant Jesus in his underwear but is "clothed" with peace love and joy! Kind of an alegory to being a saint.
