When Jesus Calls is a heartfelt novel that explores the themes of faith, forgiveness, and resilience through the journey of its protagonist, Mary. Written with grace and sincerity, author Martha Gayle captures the complexities of human emotions and the power of divine intervention in a life riddled with pain and betrayal.
Mary faces a tumultuous life that diverges sharply from her plans. Her marriage, marked by betrayal, leaves her bitter and heartbroken. In her struggle to cope, she initially turns away from her faith, relying on her own understanding instead of seeking God’s guidance. This decision sets her on a path of self-reliance that ultimately leads her further away from the solace she truly needs.
The narrative takes a turn as Mary immerses herself in her career as a sales and marketing director at a popular resort, achieving success as a best-selling author. Despite her professional accomplishments, she feels an unshakable void in her heart. Becoming a single mother challenges her faith deeply, testing her faith. Mary’s life undergoes a remarkable transformation as her desire to follow Jesus becomes a central theme, highlighting her internal conflict and gradual spiritual awakening. As she navigates her trials, Jesus offers her forgiveness and strength. Through these experiences, Mary learns the importance of depending on Jesus and the necessity of forgiveness, both for herself and others.
Martha Gayle eloquently portrays Mary’s struggle, as advised in Proverbs 4:23, “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” This biblical wisdom resonates throughout the story, emphasizing the importance of spiritual vigilance. Mary’s realization that her Savior will never fail her and that all things work together for His glory is a powerful message that underpins the entire novel. When Jesus Calls is not just a story about personal redemption through the acceptance of Jesus Christ; it is also a commentary on the imperfections of family dynamics and the beauty of unexpected love.
The narrative gracefully navigates through themes of drama, conflict, and brokenness, offering a nuanced perspective on human relationships. The book’s portrayal of Mary’s daily walk and relationship with her Heavenly Father is inspiring.
When Jesus Calls is a beautifully told story of faith and the redemptive power of God’s love. It is a must-read for anyone seeking inspiration and a deeper understanding of the transformative power of faith. The novel’s emphasis on forgiveness, both given and received, and the unexpected gifts of love and beauty in life, make it a profound and uplifting read.
