LONGWOOD, FL-So many people fail to discover their purpose, much less walk it out in life. Discouraged by setbacks, they are tempted to quit. But God wants to use your hard experiences to bring positive changes in your life, to mold the "you" He predestined. Birthed out of real-life encounters, Hewlette A.C. Pearson's The View From the Mountain: The Process of Destiny ($14.99, paperback, 978-1-60034-810-5) is a down-to-earth motivational tool for answering the tough questions that plague humankind: Why am I here? What purpose do I serve? Why do I experience hardships? Aside from establishing a relationship with God, the second and greatest need for a person to discover is their purpose in life. You have been chosen to do great things. The only hindrance to fulfilling your destiny is you.
"I hope the reader will gain a better understanding of what God desires to work out in their life when they experiences struggles, disappointment, rejection, and failure," says Pearson. "It will allow the reader to reflect on times when he thought he was alone but later found out God was there all the time, orchestrating each step to bring about a push to the next level."
Throughout Pearson's life she experienced hardships, disappointments, and failures that eventually became identity-shapers, including losing a loved one through death, dealing with physical sickness, and facing rejection from colleagues and peers. Pearson says she chose to use these obstacles to push herself to the next level and a greater glory in God.
