Steward of the Harvest

This book is a collection of spiritual art and poetry by Stephen J. Vattimo. The artwork and poetry challenge the viewer to open their eyes and ears to the salvation message of Jesus, so they can come to a saving relationship with God. The author attempts through his artwork to convey biblical concepts through the skillful use of symbolism, subject matter and the use of color. Through poetry, the author aspires to communicate spiritual principles that encourage Christian living. The writing style makes use of allegory, colorful descriptive language and plays on words. The writings encourage the reader to find hope in God. This hope will strengthen them in adversity and enable them to weather the storms and survive the droughts. As a result, they'll be able to replant after the locusts of life have devoured the work of their hands. The book can also inspire and equip Christians to walk obediently and serve God. So, when Christians stand before the throne of God and give an account for the stewardship of their lives, they as a faithful servant will be able to present a fruitful harvest to the glory of God. In sharp contrast, the unfaithful servants present a harvest of thorns and thistles to their own shame.
