Ruth 1:16-17 "And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God:Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me"
I love those verses from Ruth,it is one of my two favorite verses in the Bible! I watched a movie about Ruth one night and it was so good!! I just love the story. I often Joke I want to meet my Boaz!! I know though in God's time if it's his will he will show me that special someone,but until then really I am perfectly happy being single. It means I can dovote all my time and single years to the Lord!! I apply that verse to my relationship with the Lord. Because I am sticking with him in life not matter what,where he leads me I will follow and where his path takes me I will always go with him. That verse can mean so many things and that is how I look at it. Two of my favorite verses in the Bible:) Are you today on the path God wants you? Are you willing to stand up and say even when the world and people has walked out that yes God where thou goest I will go. Let the Lord lead your path today and follow him!!
Hey Jennifer! I also love these verses. I just LOVE the story of Ruth, and I heard a sermon recently by Bro. Joe Arthur on the story of Ruth, and he kinda depicted Boaz as Christ. How he took Ruth up out of the life she was living, and gave her a new one.
