To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!

After George found out about his father's plan to send him to military school, he pretended to be a good son at home while still living his unruly lifestyle at college. On one of his visits back home, George's father told him how much he was proud of him and happy he would soon be a legal practitioner like him. However, George's life seemed to be heading in a different direction after seeing his friend, Beta, again. Beta shocked George with his newfound faith and even invited him to join a Bible study group. Will George forsake his old ways to live a new life in Christ? What are the challenges he must face and things he could accomplish if he accepted Jesus? You have to read Let The Children Come: The Life of George Müller by Tom Fay for the answers to these questions and more.
This book follows the life of the main protagonist, George Müller. Through the use of the third-person point of view, the author tells a compelling story of redemption, faith, love, and total submission to the will of God. Even though some of the events in this novel broke my heart, I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I think readers who dislike reading about the death of loved ones might find some of the descriptions in this book disturbing. However, I love how the characters accepted death as a transitional phase into God's kingdom.
Many children disappoint by choosing a future that does not match what the parents had planned. Choosing a life of God would have probably shocked George's parents but it definitely would have pleased God. A very good official review.
