OverviewVickie's story begins in a tiny yellow house where the hum of morning routines can't drown out the empty chair that once belonged to her father. His sudden absence leaves a quiet ache in both Vickie's heart and her mother's eyes. One Sunday, however, everything changes: their pastor reads Psalm 68:5-""God is a Father to the fatherless."" Vickie clings to that single promise like a lighthouse in a storm, copying it onto a pink sticky note and pressing it over her bed. It becomes the first brick in a pathway of faith. School brings fresh challenges. At science night she watches classmates beam beside their dads, and shame pricks her like thistles. Yet in the hallway's bustle she hears another whisper-""I will never leave you""-and courage grows. When overdue bills stack high, Vickie discovers Philippians 4:19 and sparks the idea for a lemonade stand. Each cup is served with a Scripture tag, turning citrus and sugar into seeds of hope. Pennies multiply. Soon bracelets stamped with words like ""Faith"" and ""Love"" join the stand, and Saturday story times under an oak tree attract neighborhood kids hungry for encouragement. By middle school she wins a young-entrepreneur contest, donating her prize money to start ""Promise Prints,"" a business that designs journals and posters overflowing with God's Word. Years later, Mama snips a ribbon at Promise Prints' grand opening while reporters ask Vickie her secret. She simply lifts her well-worn Bible. That evening, she kneels in the same church pew where it all began, thanking the Father who healed every fracture. Now, as Vickie reads to children in her bright bookstore, she reminds them that brokenness is never the end. In God's hands wounds become windows, and forgotten kids can rise-bearing hope, building businesses, and shining a light that guides others toward Kingdom success.
