God honors the committed

Ruth committed herself to her mother in law. Though the future was uncertain, she left her family and her land to honor and provide for Naomi (Ruth 1:16-17). God honored Ruth’s faith and commitment through a kinsman redeemer, Boaz. Boaz ensured the security and prosperity of both women. He said to Ruth, “May the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings you have taken refuge, reward you fully for what you have done (Ruth 2:11-12). Are you honoring your commitments? Are you loving your neighbor as yourself? (Mat 22:39)
