Nancy DeMas-Walgamuth wonders, are you walking by faith or by sight?

If you are banking your life on what is seen, then when your mate gets cancer, when your child has a terminal disease,

when your mate says he doesn't love you anymore and doesn't want to be married to you anymore,

when you lose your job, when you lose a trusted source of income, when your health

fails, you get that terminal diagnosis. If you're living your life based on sight, then you will

crater when it comes to these times of suffering and testing and trials and affliction.

This is the Revive Our Hearts Podcast with Nancy DeMoss Walgamuth, co-author of You Can Trust God to Write Your Story.

For Friday, February 14th, 2025, I'm Dana Gresh.

Nancy, I have gotten so much out of our current series, My Personal Petitions.

I'm kind of sad that it's the last day.

Yeah, this series over the last couple of weeks has been so good for me, too.

I've gone back through these 10 personal petitions that I've prayed many times over the years

and just tried to unpack each one, first for my own heart, saying, what does this mean and

what would it look like in my life? It's made me want to pray these prayers afresh to the Lord

and ask him to do these specific things in my life. Because my desire is always, before I teach

anything on Revive Our Hearts, that the Lord would do that work in my own heart. And I know you feel

the same way when you teach Dana. I love that part of it, Nancy. I love that the Lord does that,

teaches it to me. But it's also hard. So I'm imagining that as sweet as that's been in

your life, it's also been kind of a heart-searching time for you. Yeah, it is a searching time.

But when you see the Lord do a fresh work of grace in your heart, as you lift these petitions up

to him, it also is really precious. So I've loved diving into the scripture on these topics

and letting the Lord feed me
