We all have a path that we must walk in life that leads to an expected end. In this walk of life when we overcome situations, we are expected to share our testimony so that others may know how we overcame them. In doing so, it encourages others to keep going. Revelation 12:11 says, “They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.” How I Made It Through is a heartwarming and inspirational true living testimony from Pastor Parthenia Stegall that the Lord placed on her to share with the world. Her testimony details various points of her life, both highs and lows, and how God allowed her to overcome and become a beacon for others. It is the amazing story of how at a young age, she recognized the calling in her life and answered. In doing so, she learned to put God first in her life and recognized that it was Him who allowed her to overcome every obstacle that came her way. This uplifting autobiography will encourage readers in their everyday struggles dealing with life as a young person, a sister, a wife, a mother, and most importantly a woman of God. We are instructed in Proverbs 3:5–6 to “trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths.” It will inspire readers to trust in and always put God first. We invite you to enjoy and learn from her testimony as she shares with us the missionary work God called her to do throughout her life and prays it stimulates and encourages you to fulfill your mission.

God inspired me to write this book to show people the miracles He is able to perform in our lives, by doing what we thought was impossible and bless you at the same time. So I pray that this book will be an encouragement and blessing to someone's life who feel like they're failures. In life can't be put back together , or someone who believe their current situation can't be turned around. I give all the glory to God because I couldn't do it without Him.

How I Made It Through The spectacular thing about faith is that it doesn't stay a mustard seed always. Faith grows! It is planted as a mustard seed and fertilized through tests, trials, and tribulations Then faith flourishes on the inside, sprouting into something wonderful on the outside of you. Faith is nourished in you by trial and error and can be noticed by those who interact with you. How I Made It Through is about how faith helped me throughout my challenges against breast cancer while carrying my fifth child. This book is filled with short stories designed to motivate and encourage women and men to fight the good fight of faith. Cancer is a giant, and it can be conquered by faith.
