Don't Just Look For Hope, Be Hope

Good Morning!! Broken hearted and bitter, Naomi left Moab where her husband and two sons were buried. She and her faithful daughter-in-law Ruth went to Judah. To support the two women, Ruth began to glean in the fields for food. She came to the field of Boaz, a kinsman of her dead father-in-law. When he heard of her faithfulness to Naomi, Boaz invited Ruth to eat with him and the workers and made sure she took home plenty of grain.

The women said to Naomi: "Praise be to the LORD, who this day has not left you without a kinsman-redeemer."—Ruth 4:14 (NIV)

God used Ruth, to bring healing to Naomi's broken and bitter heart. As believers, we have hope based on the work of Christ, our kinsman-redeemer,...who paid the price for us. And Christ continues to care for those who come to Him. When we share this hope, we too can become instruments of healing, turning bitterness into new life,...and new hope.

Yeild to the Spirit,
...the answer to someones prayers, may very well be, connected to your obedience to Christ.

Father God, use us as messengers of hope in the lives of those who are discouraged. Amen.

"Obedience is the key to having the presence of God in our lives,
...if we're not obeying, we aren't really walking with Him."
