Love God Greatly: Ruth

DAY 12 OF 26

Ruth comes home with full hands after a day of gleaning, and Naomi rejoices in the Providential work of God who has orchestrated events to provide for their need. Naomi is teaching Ruth about God’s character – He is kind and provides for His children. Ruth gleaning in the field of Boaz was not a coincidence – God’s redemption was at work in their lives.

During difficult times, we must trust that God is at work in ways that we cannot see. He is a good God, and He will always supply what we need. As we trust in His care, our understanding of His grace expands. Just as Ruth gleaned in the fields, we must continue to glean where God has placed us – putting feet to our faith and trusting that our Provider will never leave us empty handed.

Father, thank You for your kindness. Help us to trust that you are orchestrating events in our lives and rest in the knowledge that Your provision will never run out. Amen.

About this Plan

Love God Greatly: Ruth

If you’ve ever experienced loss, loneliness, or seasons of great change or difficulty, then you can immediately identify with the events and people in the book of Ruth. While Ruth begins as a story of heartache, it doesn’t stop there. Mourning turns to dancing as themes of loyalty, kindness, boldness, acceptance, love, and redemption are uncovered. But ultimately, Ruth is a book about the providence of God. We should never underestimate the seemingly small events in our lives. Whether it is caring for family, getting married, working, showing kindness to our neighbors, or raising children… all of it is being used by God for the good of those who love Him, for His glory, and for the salvation of others. The book of Ruth reminds us that no event or person is insignificant in the plan of God. Join us for a 4 week study in the book of Ruth.
