Star of Light

Hamid rubbed the light from his eyes and looked again. He was not dreaming; it was his stepfather!

The man watched Kinza as a snake might watch a baby rabbit at play, waiting for the moment to strike. And for one breathless moment Hamid was sure that he would reach out and snatch her away. Hamid doesn't want his blind little sister, Kinza, to be sold into slavery by their stepfather, so he decides to rescue her. Together they flee from their North African mountain village to a nearby town. Kinza may be safe there, but what will happen to Hamid, who dares not return to his village? As the children start to realize that their traditional god can't help them, a kindly nurse tells them about another God in the city of light above. Is Jesus really willing to shine the light of heaven on runaway children and welcome them into His loving arms?
