It is my experience and opinion that God inspires us internally and applies us externally carefully accommodating our intended mission. Plan and execution meet as seldom occurs in a human affairs when eschewing the Creator dimension. I firmly believe that God calls us and plants us precisely and exactly in the right place to meet his calling. Some would contest this by saying: "You have lived a privileged life; no wonder you can say that. But if you had lived my life you would think the opposite." I believe wholeheartedly that the concept of destiny is open to scandalous abuse wherein the most exploitative and cruel of people can claim divine right. Such arrogant use of the calling concept is disgusting and a perversion of all that is holy. It is evident that intended destiny can be short-circuited by errant free will. The constant task before us is to humbly petition divine direction in our lives and to have the courage, stamina and patience to meet it.
