A Life Changing Encounter
Last week we saw what amounted to the 1st date between Ruth and Boaz--a romantic meal over roasted grain! The chapter closed with a season of waiting, with the audience wondering what was going to happen between Ruth & Boaz. In chapter 3, things heat up as we watch Ruth make a bold & daring move. Even in a scene that contains what some might call sensual overtones, we see the character & integrity of both Boaz and Ruth on full display. And although, we must wait until chapter 4 for the climax of the story--we get some incredible truths in chapter 3 about what God-pleasing faith looks like when the rubber meets the road. We learn that this type of faith takes big risks, is vulnerable, intimate, waits patiently and that it actually works in a big way in God’s Kingdom!
