This guided lectio divina of Psalm 6 (NASB) corresponds to Ruth 1:6-13, mirroring Naomi's belief that "the hand of the Lord has gone forth against me." Erica strategically stops before the psalmist acknowledges that God has heard their cries, just as Naomi does not yet beleive that God has heard her own cries.

Make sure to stay tuned for parts two and three, which will dig into the social, historical and literary study of Ruth 1:6-13.
