Ruth

This could also be combined with the book of Judges. Ruth was a Moabite women whom God was prepared to bless her because of her unfailing love for God and God's people. Naomi and Ruth became a strong bond.

This story is in such contrast to the previous book of evil priests, prostitutes, civil war.

Ruth's humility and also the knowledge of God's word which commanded the Israelites not to take everything out of their fields but leave some for those who don't have. For truly Ruth's simple heart touched Boaz and was amazed by her hard work and focus spirit and noble character.

So Boaz took Ruth as his wife being the next redeemer in line. Ruth gave birth to a son his name was Obed, the father of Jesse, the father of David. Because of her faithfullness and love for her mother-in-law and her God, She formed the line of Jesus. May God be praised!

Amen

I remember the bus trip back to Yaounde and how surreal it all felt (especially since there was a job interview lined up in Munich).   Me on the bus (in the middle of nowhere) on my way back to Yaounde. Clearly I was too excited to sleep (like someone next to me). I was already missing my lovely Cameroon. On the news, the coronavirus (covid-19) was beginning to show its ugly head in Italy and various other neighbouring countries. My aunt even told me to postpone my trip, but it was too late. I was already packed. Don't mess with a black man and his luggage! Me, mysel...

Awesome #camping. The great #outdoor #country #goodliving #instaphoto #life2full I must say we're a bit rusty as I almost forgot the tent and forgot to bring a long enough extension cord. My lovely wife @kantue packed cheese but only brought a plastic butter knife. #letthegoodtimesroll via Instagram http://ift.tt/1AzRUNf
