Letter from Nancy

Dear Friend,

When my husband, Robert, and I wrote You Can Trust God to Write Your Story in 2019, we could not have envisioned what 2020 would look like. We could not have imagined that our world would be reeling from a pandemic, economic freefall, extreme political polarization, and intense racial tensions . . . and, at a more personal level, that we would be dealing with Robert’s cancer.

Trusting God isn’t just a nebulous theological concept to us; it’s something we’re needing to walk in every day.

Even as the earth seems to be shaking beneath us in this season, we keep reminding ourselves of this one, unshakable, unchang- ing reality:

Heaven rules!

This confidence is a life preserver; it steadies our hearts when fear and uncertainty threaten to overwhelm us. The assurance that “heaven rules” is how it can be said of women of God:

Strength and dignity are her clothing,
And she smiles at the future. (Prov. 31:25 NASB)

Day after day, I rejoice to hear of women around the world who illustrate this verse. In challenging times, their faith in the unshakable character of God is strong and flourishing. They are learning to trust God in the midst of uncertainty and are finding new opportunities to share the gospel. And women’s ministry leaders have had their faith deepened as they learn to minister and shepherd in fresh ways. You’ll read about some of these women in this update from Revive Our Hearts.

No matter what is yet to come in the future, we can smile; we can remain unshaken. We really can trust Him to write our story, which is part of a far bigger, grander, eternal Story of redemption He is writing in our world.

In whatever circumstances you may be facing today, may you be clothed with strength (His strength) and dignity. May your heart be grounded in this unchanging, rock-solid truth: God is present in the midst of your troubles. He is your refuge, your strength, and your unfailing hope.

Blessings,

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth

We’re celebrating one year since the release of
Nancy and Robert’s first book together. Many
lives have been impacted through stories of God’s
proven faithfulness woven throughout the book.
Nancy and Robert didn’t know then the difficulties
this year would present, but they continue to live
out the book’s title, unshaken in their faith. Whatever storms or challenges come, you really can trust God with your life.
The Lord has used You Can Trust God to Write Your Story mightily to encourage me in my jour- ney of faith. I have known the Lord since I was a young child (since I was six and now I’m sixty).
Given the many challenges I have faced over the years, I really strug- gle not to be anxious. This book has given me a new perspective on the “journey of trust.” I can also identify with Nancy’s pain of the sudden loss of losing a brother. I could not put the book down and read it in one day! —Evelyn
