I have enjoyed these Christian novels, and this one has many merits. It is well read. But I have serious concern with the plot of this book, although it is hard to remember when everything turned out so well. But this is a novel. The plot is under the control of the writer. That is seldom the case in real life. I remember being stunned when I realized that Rebecca was going to marry Frank. His commitment and indeed understanding of his need for Christ seemed quite vague. A fact that was clearly supported in the subsequent chapters. It is not that a wife should not be an influence over her husband for good, but that the time to be that influence, work out those very foundational concerns is always before marriage, not after. I am an old lady. I have seen many young women go into marriage like Rebecca and it has brought much sorrow. The foundation of a Christian marriage is the love of Christ. A Christian woman should fall in love with her husband's relationship with Christ and vice versa. Christ is first.

This is a memorable book with a charming narrator. A book made up of various episodes in a young lady’s life as she tries to honor God’s word and live out her faith. Like many of Pansy’s books, it can feel a bit preachy, especially to modern ears. If you don’t understand God’s grace, and working through God’s strength and by His guidance, this story could seem like a work-based religion tale, but I don’t think that is what the author intended. It is an endearing tale of a young woman trying, and sometimes failing, to apply her Sunday School lessons to her every day life.

I was enlightened by some discussion of Pentacostalism. Perfect holiness in this life only as it is worked in Christ by the Holy Spirit. Works of the Spirit as Paul calls them.

I loved the story of Rebecca’s trials and successes. I would have liked to see how Rebecca responded to being wooed by Frank and the wedding.
