I can hardly believe I’m writing this…
We are officially in the countdown phase for the release of my memoir, The Race of Your Life: A Spiritual and Mental Battle Against an Incurable Disease! 🎉📘

What started as journal entries, prayers, and raw reflections has transformed into a full manuscript — and now, it’s almost time to place this story into the hands and hearts of readers.

There is something surreal about watching your story take shape, page by page, and realizing that God has been in every line, every edit, every long night, and every breakthrough moment. And now? Now we’re at the doorstep of something beautiful.

🗓️ Mark Your Calendars — December 1, 2025!

That’s the day this book officially launches into the world.

Honestly… I’m a mix of:
💛 thrilled
💛 humbled
💛 nervous
💛 and overflowing with gratitude

But most of all, I’m excited to share it with you.

📦 Proof Copies Are Here — and I Held My Book in My Hands!

Yesterday, something incredible happened…
My proof copy arrived.

I can’t describe the feeling of holding this book — my book — in my hands for the first time.
The cover.
The pages.
The weight of the story God carried me through.
It all suddenly felt real.

I opened that package with shaky hands and a full heart. Seeing The Race of Your Life in physical form reminded me just how far God has brought me — not only in writing this story, but in living it.

Now the fun part begins:
👀 flipping through every page
📝 making small corrections
✔️ polishing details so it reflects my very best
💛 celebrating the moment God handed me a dream wrapped in a paperback

This is no longer a manuscript.
It’s a real book.
And soon, it will be in your hands too.

✍🏽 The Workbook/Journal Is Coming Too!

Because one book wasn’t enough!
I’m also releasing a Workbook/Journal designed to walk with you through the memoir.

It’s filled with:
✨ reflection prompts
✨ guided exercises
✨ faith-centered questions
✨ journaling space

Think of it as your companion as you process your own race — step by step, breath by breath, victory by victory.

🌟 A Journey I Never Planned but God Prepared

If someone had told me years ago that I’d write a memoir about battling an incurable lung disease… I’m not sure I would’ve believed them.

But God knew.
He knew the story before I lived it.
He knew the impact before I typed a word.
And He knew that this book would become a ministry tool, not just a memoir.

Through this process, I learned:
✨ God is faithful in the waiting.
✨ God heals in layers.
✨ God uses pain as a platform for His glory.
✨ And God walks us through every chapter — even the ones we never wanted to write.

💬 A Thought for You

If you’re in a season of waiting — waiting for clarity, healing, progress, or breakthrough — I want to remind you:

Waiting is not wasted. God does His best work in the quiet, unseen places.

You’re not behind.
You’re being prepared.

Your story is still unfolding, and God is still writing.

🙇🏽‍♀️ Closing Thought

This isn’t just the end of a writing journey — it’s the beginning of a new one.

I can’t wait to share this book with you all. Every page, every word, every prayer whispered into this project is a testament to God’s goodness and grace.

 ✨ The finish line is in sight…and this is just the beginning of something beautiful.

With grace,
Stacy

🙏🏽 A Prayer for the One Waiting on Their Own Release Day

Lord,

We praise You for the things You’re preparing, even when we cannot see them.
We glorify You for the healing You give in layers.
We thank You for the hope You plant in our waiting seasons.
