Ruth
-
This chapter is about hope. It is not just hope for Ruth, but also hope for Naomi and Boaz as well. Hope is one the great gifts God gives us to strengthen us and lift us up. Without hope for the future, life becomes too hard to bear.

The book of Ruth is the only book in the Bible named after a non-Israelite. She was a foreigner and not even the only main character. Her actions are so amazing, though, that she has rightfully been given the place of honor.
