It is easy to slip into bitterness and isolation during hard times, but don't lose hope! The book of Ruth has encouragement for Christians who wonder if they can live successfully when their lives fall apart. Ruth and Naomi had no idea how God would use them--grieving, lonely widows-- in accomplishing his plan of redemption. Out of their pain and loss cameGod's greatest work, the gift of his Son to save his people . . . Ruth the mother of Obed, Obed the father of Jesse, the father of David, the ancestor of Christ himself.
