I've been waiting for this book, for years! The author is a dear friend, sister in the Lord and a mentor to me. When Diana's cancer journey first began, a group of friends (we called ourselves the Sistas) met with her to pray and for our Lord to show us what her next medical decisions would be. She always seemed to start our time together by bringing out a notepad, then said, "Let me read to you what the Lord showed me today...." Then she'd read the scriptures that went along with her revelations. We realized Diana had a special gift of journaling her conversations with the Lord about this life threatening journey-we encouraged her to start an on-line blog so others could follow along! You see, she was glowing, smiling, sharing the Peace that passes understanding! She was so inspiring through her valley. Many times I would share her story with others who were battling cancer, or even just in a valley. There was a point where we realized her journal should become a book. But how and when? We waited and waited….Then I moved away.
I recently asked, "Oh, when Lord, will Diana's story/journal ever become a book?" I kept meeting people who needed to hear her story, in a concise format.
The excitement was overwhelming when she recently called me with the news - the book is coming out! And a few days later, she sent me an advance copy. I wanted to read it that night-which I've been known to do with a really good book....but the subtitle contained these words, "Savoring Life's Best" which spoke to me. "Savor this book." It took me a week! By the end of Secret #7, I had to gobble up the "final" chapters....WOW WOW WOW! It was worth the wait!

Diana is one of my closest friends. Reading Victory in the Valley was difficult, because it brought back many memories when I walked that cancer valley with her. But in addition to bringing tears to my eyes it brought hope and encouragement with each word of this small but powerful book. The book is not about her struggles fighting an aggressive cancer, but about the victory that came into her life every day. We call them "God stories". If Diana's faith ever waived during that whole journey, her face and her heart never showed it. I visited her one day, thinking I needed to be positive, encouraging to her. When I left, I was the one who felt blessed and whole after spending time with her.
Her book Victory in The Valley made me feel exactly the same way.. full of hope. This is a book I keep in my office to pull out and reread.....just when I need to feel encouraged.
One of the best books I have ever read.

This is such a powerful glimpse: February 25: "Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God." (Psalm 20:7). "So do not fear, Diana – God is with you. Nothing can overcome the mighty strength of the Lord. Trust Him for your victory."
I'm so grateful I was along for this wild ride - and now to see your beautiful megaphone!!! Let's shout it from the rooftops! Our Lord is there with us NO MATTER!
