Notes of encouragement for Nancy and tributes to Robert
So sad to hear about his departure. May God console Nancy and Robert’s family and give Nancy the strength to continue the race and mission for which she has been called. “……. looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.”
No habido una historia de amor y fidelidad del amor de Dios, que vuestras vidas. Les he admirado y han sido de aliento en mi vida. Solo un fuerte abrazo en este tiempo 😔 Nuestro Padre, fortalezca vuestro corazón y de la familia. 🇵🇪 Salmo 34:8
Gracias a Dios por las preciosas vidas de Robert y Nancy; hoy en su voluntad buena, agradable y perfecta Robert duerme, para su amada esposa solo resta seguir el camino a casa, al hogar eterno donde Cristo nos espera con otros Santos que lo honraron con su vida. Hermana Nancy el Padre Eterno queda contigo y su gracia te sostendrá en el poderoso nombre de Jesús. Amén, Amén y Amén
My heart breaks like I've known Robert my whole life. Nancy, I am grieving with you and praying for God's peace to remain with you as you grieve the loss of your husband. Nancy means so much to me, though I've never met her. My walk with Jesus is stronger now, when I am in a devastating storm of my own, than it ever has been because of the teachings and encouragement of Nancy. God is good. Praise God for Jesus. In heaven there will be no more tears. ❤️
I received the information about Robert and tears immediately fell. I praise God for Robert and his family. I am in the presence of my prematurely born grand daughter whom is thriving due, in part, to the prayers of Revive Our Hearts ministry. We love you Jesus.
So saddened by this news. I have been praying for Robert and felt truly privileged to have met him during our last Zoom meeting. He even prayed for all of us. I never imagined it would be our first and last meeting 🥲. He is now home and free. We praise God for his life and ministry, and I am praying for the comfort that only God can give to Nancy and the entire family during this tough season.
You are in our prayers dear sister. He beholds the one who came to save him, the one you both serve faithfully. To know he is “safe” must give you such comfort. Love your brother and sister in Christ, Jeff and Julie Dingwall
Praying for you Nancy, and for Robert's entire family. May our great God come alongside you all and give you comfort and strength in the days ahead, as he has in the padt 3 weeks! I am so very thankful for the sweet and unconditional love we were all able to witness over the last 10 years of your marriage. To God be the Glory❣️🙏
I thank God for faithful men like Robert! What a stellar testimony in a fallen world. You are in my prayers, Nancy Leigh and all his loved ones.
Dear Nancy My heart is breaking for you and Roberts children and extended families. The first time I heard about Revive our Hearts was listening to an interview with yourself and Robert speaking on your journey and married life in October 2016. I have been encouraged challenged and Blessed listening each morning to your Podcast ever since. May you know God's peace and comfort during these days and the days ahead. Thank you for your faithfulness to The Word of God sharing it daily with so many women around the world. Praying for you all Psalm 23
Dear Nancy, my thoughts and prayers are with you. He is now in the presence of the Lord in heaven where you will see him again. The times both of you were on Revive Our Hearts revealed how much you two loved each other. I pray that the Lord comforts you.
Nancy has been a true spiritual mother to me. I have lived without my mother for almost 3 decades now, and have leaned hard on the ROH ministry to teach me about growing in my marriage, in parenting, and especially in my relationship with the Lord. When Nancy began her journey with Robert more than 10 years ago, my whole family tuned into the wonderful joyful drama of it all. We were present for the live stream of their wedding, and I was so grateful to receive the wisdom Robert provided to we ROH girls over the years. My husband and I got to meet Robert at a donors meeting in Dallas a couple of years ago and he was so charming and warm. All three of my daughters walk with the Lord, and my marriage has been so strengthened, all through Nancy's ministry in large part. I know how Nancy is going to deal with this terrible blow, because I know the Lord who has loved her so well all these years. But I also know that she must be hurting so terribly, and I wish that I could tell her in person that her leaning on her father in Heaven in her singleness and childlessness, in her marriage, and now and her widowhood is a lifeline to me. The way she has been used by God in front of all of us all these years has meant so much. I can never say how much. Her suffering is not for nothing. I am so grateful for her example, but my heart is so broken for her pain. May she be given over and over the grace she has given to us. May her father hold her in his arms ever tighter and more intimately now that her Robert is with him. We quiet ROH girls who have tuned in all these years love you dearly, Nancy. We love your precious Robert, too, and look so forward to rejoicing in Heaven with you.
Nancy, yo también perdí a mi esposo amado, se del dolor que puedas estar pasando qué una cree que no puede sobrevivir humanamente, pero Dios sabe tu dolor, El es consolador y te dará las fuerzas para continuar. Mis oraciones contigo y la familia.
I would like to give a word of encouragement to Nancy that without a doubt the Lord will continue to see her through this story the Lord has written in her life. I thank her for being a great example to me as a Godly woman. I am also a widow, and can identify with what she is experiencing right now. Yes, truly the Lord is on the throne and always in control. Love you Sister in Christ
Dearest Nancy: I am praying for you and your step-daughters in the homegoing of your beloved Robert. Yes, he is home with the Lord. He is safe, and you will see him again. What joy and hope! But there is also pain and an ache in your heart from such a loss as this. "He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds." (Ps. 147:3) I know our Father will be faithful in the days, weeks, months ahead to heal and bind up. In those days and moments when sadness or loneliness overwhelms you, may our Emmanuel's loving presence be your strength and peace. What a comfort to know we are never alone; God is always with us, and His steadfast love endures forever. "Let your steadfast love comfort me according to your promise to your servant." (Ps. 119:76) Praying, dear Nancy.
Dear Nancy— Your deep faith in Jesus has been such a testimony to watch. Thank you for sharing your lives, together with Robert over the last 10 years, as you put your faith in action in your marriage to Robert. From another who found true love later in life, I can attest to the beautiful gift it is from Jesus. I appreciate this last hard season for you, watching Robert go home to Jesus. I consider this a ‘preparation gift’ to me, with my husband of 38 years ( he is 87) diminishing in strength, due to congestive heart failure. You will continue to be in my prayers.
dear nancy may god confromt you
God bless you, Nancy in this time and season of your life. I listen to you often on the radio and you have changed my life. This saddens me but no one day will be with our creator again. God bless you. Send many hugs to you and your family.
Nancy, in life, in sickness, and now in death, you have walked out the Gospel. I cried when you two married. I cry now that Robert has received the ultimate promotion. But, I praise God for both of your lives. Thanks for being His servants. I will pray for you, for your strength and comfort, and joy. Heaven does rule, and Jesus is near.
Nancy, Robert’s 2 daughters, the 5 grandchildren, and the 3 great grandchildren, I’m expressing my sympathy to you all for the loss of this loving, godly husband, father, grandpa, and great grandpa. God has you all safely in His hands and will comfort you through the promises of His Word, His Holy Spirit’s indwelling presence as a child of God, and through the countless people who have become aware of Robert’s homegoing this morning. I understand this loss of a beloved husband due to my husband’s passing almost 2 1/2 years ago. We sorrow their departure from being absent from us, but we rejoice in God’s will for their lives to forever be with Him, their Creator, God Almighty. We have sea confident expectation that we will be together again…and maybe EVEN TODAY if Christ were to come back. May we keep our lamps burning brightly so others can see God’s reflective peace and joy that is given as a gift from our REDEEMER. Hallelujah, Nancy and family!
