Picked up a little copy of this book from 1920 at an estate sale because it looked cute. Upon reading it, I discovered it contains a wonderful little parable. While set in the Muslim faith, it contains a sentiment common to all faiths, about faith.

A wonderful parable of patience and what life truly means. Spend 20 minutes on this lovely enjoyable parable! You won’t regret it!

Interesting and potentially helpful parable about one way to think about and interpret the times in life when things don't seem to be going as quickly, or in the direction, you want.
