As much as we would love for Ruth and Boaz's story to end just like all the star-crossed lovers we see in all of the "perfect movies," that's not how it turns out. It is messy. There are a lot of questionable things that occur before everything works itself out. Despite it all, God was still there with them through. Despite all of the questionable things that might have happened in our lives, how do we put the past behind us and let God place us where we need to be?
We rarely ever see it before it is presented before us. God is working behind the scenes and we don't even know it. After Ruth loses her husband and resides with 2 widows who have all lost everything, one might suggest God has forsaken them and treated them bitterly. But, where is God actually in this story?
How do we choose the people we surround ourselves with? How do we choose to love the people that we love? Why do we keep carrying on in the midst of everything?
