| Summary | "The Angel of His Presence" by Grace Livingston Hill is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows John Wentworth Stanley, a cultured young man returning home to America after two years of travel and study abroad. As he grapples with the changes in himself and the expectations from his past life, he encounters themes of faith, redemption, and the pressing weight of his previous commitments to a mission school, particularly through a significant connection with Margaret Manning, a kind and earnest young teacher at the school. At the start of the novel, John Stanley is aboard an Atlantic liner, contemplating his return to New York. He reflects on his past life, the changes he has undergone, and his once fervent enthusiasm for his work at the Forest Hill Mission, which now feels distant and tedious to him. His encounter with an elderly man named Manning reveals the impact of Stanley's earlier contributions to the mission and the joy he brought to the lives of the boys he taught. As memories of his youthful devotion resurface, Stanley is forced to confront the stark contrast between the person he has become and the one he once was, foreshadowing an internal struggle about his identity and values as the story unfolds.
