Fear. Fear from without: fear of
persecution, fear of punishment, fear of retaliation. Fear from within: fear of
failure, fear of not being good enough, fear of letting others down, fear of
letting yourself down. Fear. Debilitating, enslaving, imprisoning, defeating.
Grace. Grace from the Father. Grace sometimes
offered by others. Grace, something we rarely offer ourselves. Grace, once
accepted: freeing, releasing, joy evoking, undeserved, a gift, the foundation
of freedom.
The Calling is a story of both fear and grace. It is a
story of surrendering the things that fears are built upon in order to grasp
the grace that is offered. It is a tale of forgetting and remembering, only to
forget again. In the midst of life’s joys and turmoils, it is sometimes
difficult to remember who and whose you are.
The continuing story of Carrington and
Remko that began with The Choosing, is
extremely well written, and completely enthralling. Readers will need to have
read the first book in this series in order to truly understand and appreciate
this second book. An investment of time and money that will pay great
dividends. You will emerge changed. Not many books or authors have such a
significant impact
One important bit of information for
readers new to The Seer series, this series is of the dystopian genre. For
those who are fans of this genre, you are in for a treat. For those who have
never read a dystopian novel, this is a great place to start. For those who
have previously tried this genre and found it less than appealing, this is the
perfect opportunity to give it another chance.
