Walk With Ruth
September 10, 2024
If you’re needing a spiritual boost today, read the story of the widow, Ruth in the book of Ruth. I’ve fictionalized her story, historically accurately in Not Alone.
Walk with me on the dusty road from Moab to Bethlehem. I am young, athletic, hungry for a new life. And smart enough to look away and not make eye contact with the rugged ruffians on the path. My name is Ruth.
She is following her widowed mother-in-law to a strange land, giving up her homeland, her pagan life style, her family, customs, favored foods, everything. Why? She saw in Naomi a faith so unshakeable that she chose to follow Naomi’s God, God himself.
Talk about courage, talk about conversion. Be inspired by Ruth.
