    The Lord is using all the circumstances to bring forth his salvation history. Through the hand of God Boaz, a “worthy man” is brought into Ruth’s life.

    The Lord uses the unlikely. In Corinth Paul told the believers not many of you were influential or of noble birth when you were called. That was true for Ruth also. She was the furthest thing from nobility, and she had no influence. She was a cursed Moabite woman. Being one of the unlikely ones was ...read more
