16 But Ruth replied, “Don’t ask me to leave
you and turn back. Wherever you go, I will go; wherever you live, I will live.
Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God. 17 Wherever you die, I will
die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord punish me
severely if I allow anything but death to separate us!” 18 When Naomi saw that Ruth was
determined to go with her, she said nothing more. Ruth 1:16-18
Have you ever been this committed to a person/relationship?
Naomi had nothing to offer Ruth and it seemed like everything had been going wrong for Naomi.
The future was uncertain yet Ruth was faithful to her mother-in-law.
How committed are you? How faithful are you to God and others?
As you read the Book of Ruth notice the virtues of both Ruth and Boaz!
