In the book of Ruth, we saw how self-centered Naomi and Elimelech were. That when there was a famine on Israel, they left the land of God's blessing, to look for food. A place they went to, where people live ungodly lifes. It shows us how they did not trust in God, that God will provide and rescue them. They chose to take things to their own hands. They think that they can handle the problem and they do not need God's help. They want things their way. In the end, Naomi lost her husband and 2 sons. This teaches us that we should always trust God, commit all our cause to Him. Believe that God will provide us with our needs, according to His will.
In the 2nd part of Ruth, we saw God's unexpected kindness showering on Naomi and Ruth through the kindness of Boaz. How Boaz allow Ruth to work in his field, his kindness towards her and his protection over her. And as time goes by, love for Ruth starts to nurture. This shows us that no matter what wrong we do, God so love us, will never forsake us. In response, may we all live a life that trust and obey God. Never take things into our hands, just leave everything to Him.
