Friday, July 13th - Ruth 1

Good Morning!

I was a little later getting the tweet this morning and so I am a little later getting this out!  Sorry!  I have the day off and I am trying to get some things done around the house, but so far I have had other things come up! :o)  Know what I mean?

Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Ruth 1 ~ Meet Naomi - a good woman or Ruth wouldn't have left her people to go with her.  But, her circumstances determined her joy (Mara)  #focus on God

Naomi - foreigner (Ephrathite living in Moab), widow, mother, mother-in-law, caring and loving, wise, and sad that she had lost her husband and her sons.
She gave the option to her daughters-in-law to return to their family's and possibly marry again, but Ruth wanted to stay with her.  When she saw Ruth's determination, she allowed Ruth to return to Judah with her.  (vs. 16-18)

Naomi was a good woman and a leader of her time.  She was like a mentor to Ruth and it all turned out well in the end.  Read on......

Have a wonderful Friday!
