Book Reviews of All You Ever Need
Book Review: "Freely you have received, freely give."
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been meditating on this verse a lot lately. Matthew 10:8. Interestingly enough, I came across this book with the above title, as the basis of the story. Tobias, the Watermaster who has endless, life-giving water for the village gives freely to all without judgment. All they had to do was ask for water. "Tobias would talk to the people about their lives. He would laugh with them and inquire about their hopes and dreams while Julian (his son) helped them draw water for their families."
They had to go away and left Elzevir to give the water. Elzevir began judging as who deserved to get the water. Obviously, soon no one was good enough, and the people were greatly discouraged and would rather die of thirst than go to him because they couldn't please him.
I love how Max uses symbolism in his stories to the Bible. Tobias is God, Julian is Jesus, Elzevir can be seen as the devil, the people are us, and the water is Life. I'm thankful that Jesus, I mean, Julian, (heh) came back and gave water to everyone, including Elzevir, even against the crowd's cries of "No water for Elzevir, he was cruel to us!"
"I know he was. But if water were given only to good people, who could drink?"
The people were silent and marveled at the grace of Jesus, I mean Julian.
There is water for all.
Soar!
