- Synopsis
- Celia Murray was unhappy living in a drab, dirty boardinghouse with other “homeless" people. The food was poorly cooked and tasteless, the rooms dark and drafty. But she could afford nothing better. After inheriting an abundant yearly allowance, Celia and her Aunt Hannah were able to take over the boardinghouse, and they immediately began making improvements--both material and spiritual. These two godly women, assisted by Horace Stafford, a young minister, taught the boarders about Christ's love--a love that brought them together as a "family." As Celia became involved in the lives of her boarders, she knew she was falling in love with the kindhearted pastor. But she soon realized this feeling could never be returned. Distressed, Celia sought comfort from the Lord, but her troubled spirit gave her no peace. She had learned to trust Cod daily as she saw Him work in the lives around her--but could she trust Him in the matter of her own heart? She loved a man who cherished another woman. Celia Murray, an impoverished, beautiful young woman--orphaned at an early age--found the desires of her prayerful heart answered by an unexpected inheritance. Now she was able to provide for her beloved Aunt Hannah and change her oppressive life-style in a dreary Philadelphia boardinghouse. One night an educated young man, Horace Stafford, came to rent a room. Celia was attracted to him, but was sure he loved another. Didn't he treasure the locket that contained a picture of a young woman? Ashamed and angry with herself, Celia fought her growing affection, but Horace's strong faith and good works stirred her heart. Was Celia's love for this man of God never to be fulfilled?
