The Storm of Life by Hesba Stretton.
Rachel Trevor was released from prison
and went looking for her child, Rosy, at the workhouse. They were
desolate and cold as they searched for food and work, and had no luck. A
chimney sweep took them in and offered domestic employment. When they
met Rachel's husband accidentally, she did not want to fall back in her
old wicked ways with him, but she must be his wife. She showed unusual
strength while she tried to resist evil. The story is an encouraging
message of hope that God sees us in the midst of severe trials. An
important quote is "Christ loves me, God loves me. Thou God seest me."
