Passage: Ruth
In Ruth 1, tragedy, loss, and unexpected decisions become part of a much bigger story. Through Naomi and Ruth, we see the invisible Hand of God at work, guarding, guiding, providing, and moving ordinary lives according to His purpose. Even when we cannot see what God is doing, He is at work behind the scenes, ultimately pointing everything to Jesus.
