Ruth 1:16
And Ruth said, Entreat me not to leave you, or return from following after you; for where you go, I will go; and
where you live, I will live: your people shall be my people, and your God my God.
How often have we been in a position to value the life of a child of God so strongly that we want to have a life similar

Ruth 2:12
The Lord recompense your work, and a full reward be given you of the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings you
have come to trust.
Isn’t it a wonderful thing to be examined while laboring for the Lord and found to be in favor, not only of the Lord in
a new-found faith, but also of those that have taken notice of our labor?
Ruth 3:11
An now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to you all that you require: for all the city of my people do know that you are a
virtuous woman.
How many carry on with the honorable work that the Lord gives us to do, not expecting a reward, but welcoming it
when it comes?
Ruth 4:13
So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the Lord gave her conception, and she bare
a son.
When we follow all we are told to do, the Lord will open up doors of opportunity to us that would never been possible
otherwise, thereby continuing the growing the kingdom.
