"Simon" de George Sand. George Sand, romanci re et femme de lettres fran aise (1804-1876).
Excerpt: The train had come a long journey and the afternoon was wearing on. The passenger in the last third class compartment but one, looking out of the window sombrely and intently, saw nothing now but desolate brown hills and a winding lonely river, very northern looking under the autumnal sky.He was alone in the carriage, and if any one had happened to study his movements during the interminable journey, they would have concluded that for some reason he seemed to have a singularly strong inclination for solitude. In fact this was at least the third compartment he had occupied, for whenever a fellow traveller entered, he unostentatiously descended, and in a moment had slipped, also unostentatiously, into an empty carriage. Finally he had selected one at the extreme end of the train, a judicious choice which had ensured privacy for the last couple of hours.When the train at length paused in the midst of the moorlands and for some obscure reason this spot was selected for the examination of tickets, another feature of this traveller's character became apparent. He had no ticket, he confessed, but named the last station as his place of departure and the next as his destination
A shadow draped the city of Jerusalem in confusion. Darkness covered the land, only to reveal the glorious Light it attempted to bury, but the Light returned to its dwelling place, and obscurity blanketed the city again. The lives of those who believed in the Eternal Light, Jesus, Son of God, faced testing and trials; however, they also experienced renewed faith, hope, redemption and forgiveness. They fled their homes with new enemies in pursuit, and sought refuge in the Galilean hills, hoping the Light would return. Continue the journey of Selah, Kezi, and those who also searched for Truth; and Simon, son of Selah, the Watchman, who guarded each life, until his own was placed in jeopardy. Author of Selah, musician and former business owner, Joni has lived in South Florida over forty years and has come to enjoy the simple pleasures of life; nature walks, reading and relaxing at the beach. She has a passion for history, especially His story. Over the years she has served in her local church as a leader in Women's Ministry and on Worship Teams playing violin.
Join Simon of Cyrene's business endeavor to expand trade across the Roman Empire when he unexpectedly falls prey to a mob in Jerusalem. What happens to Simon when everything shatters as he is compelled to carry the cross of Jesus?
It had never seemed important during their boyhood that Simon Carey was for Parliament and his friend Amias Hannaford a royalist. But when Civil War breaks out, they find themselves fighting on different sides. Finally the day comes when the friends must put their friendship to the test.
Rebellion and martyrdom collide as Simon discovers freedom's true cost. Simon ben Joseph longed to see his dagger bathed in Roman blood. But with his father's unexpected death and the responsibility of caring for his many siblings, his dreams of joining the rebellion against Rome were replaced by relentless days of hard labor. When his older brother Jesus began preaching radical ideas, Simon's hopes for overthrowing Rome and establishing a true nation of Israel were reignited. He envisioned following Jesus as a warrior-king, like their ancient ancestors. Instead, Jesus chose a path of martyrdom. Frustrated by his brother's sacrifice, Simon joined the Zealots, determined to fight for the freedom of his people. Yet, as he becomes deeply involved in the zealous struggle for liberation, Simon faces the grim reality that achieving peace might require a price he's not prepared to pay. Wrestle with pain, heartache, and the transformation of freedom in Simon, Book 6 of the Servant Siblings series.
