About this ebook
“Hearing her speak, I received an unction of the possibility that I too would study abroad.
Yet, the significance and the nature of my journey had not yet been revealed.”
Excerpt - Chapter 2 - “Destiny’s Voice”
DESTINY’S CALLING, Inspiration for the Journey, a short-story series, is the 3rd book of the series by Author, Vicki L. Thompson who engages readers to enter the unimaginable adventures God has prepared for everyone, called Glimpses in Divine Providence.
The author presents a storyline juxtaposing the intersection of personal circumstances and faith so to fulfill life’s destiny.
The principal character is a young college student whose response to an opportunity to study abroad uncovers the path to her destiny. Intriguing storytelling evokes vivid imagery of the novel’s characters, chronological sequences, era descriptions and historical landmarks as evidence of the unlimited possibilities of believing and trusting in God.
The journey intertwines life’s events and character’s dialog to convey pertinent humanitarian issues with humorous resolve. The interplay evokes readers to believe there is a reason for special moments in life with subtle inferences of God’s providence in every occurrence, inspiring determination, hope, love for oneself, God and humanity.
