Ruth Chapter 1 Comments ...

Ruth saw the Godliness in her mother in law and wanted to forsake her people and her GODS TO FOLLOW WHAT is good it was love that drew Ruth to Naomi her mother in law. I believe Naomi was kind thoughtful and wise often gives Ruth good encouragement in the end Ruth did not want to leave her side. Ruth is also very kind-hearted and thoughtful. She decided to stick with her old mother in law to the end. This is truly a love relationship.

God will always put someone in our lives so we won’t be alone. Ruth was very caring and a woman of God. Because Ruth did not want to leave Naomi.

Isn't it awesome how GOD always plants someone without our life too comfort us when we need it most? Naomi's trials didn't begin until Ruth had already been firmly planted in her life. Having gone through some close family dealths I am a true testimony that GOD will never leave us without someone to comfort us. He will be ther 24 hrs. a day also. Naomi is an example that even when we have our doubts, GOD will stear us on the right path.

WHAT IS IN MOAB WAS FOR A SHORT WHILE,NAOMI HAD TO GO BACK TO JUDAH.JUDAH WAS NT PROMISING AT FIRST BUT STILL IT WAS WHERE GOD HAD PURPOSED TO BLESS HER.LETS PERSEVERE IN JUDAH SOMETHING GOOD WILL EMERGE.

god chose any one he pleases regardless of the background of that person, god planned before even naomi went to moab, that jesus christ wiil generate from ruth. always god is faithful will not ;eave us empty in any circumstances we might be in, naomi by then could not recognise the love of ruth on her, that kind of love we need especially when those we love are in difficulties.

Thats the love of God which we are to show each other. Ruth showed her Love and took care of her mother-in-law as her own mother and God blessed them both.

Ruth did not end behind the reapers but was promoted to the hous of Boaz to their mistress while first they saw her as a begger. You may start down but your destiny is so high to be the ruler over all

What have you are going through please do not change your name to Mara, do not be bitter for the Lord will be working something for you through the destiny that is inside of you, only your Ruth knows what you cant see Naomi, the destiny of the genealogy of Christ inside you is calling Ruth to following you, there is something very massive, very huge and gigantic inside of you, a vision for the world, Keep you name or call yourself, blessed, call yourself praise, call yourself breathtrough, call yourself dreams, call yourself faithful and let God work the promise inside you while you are praising Him for your Ruth.

this is an encouraging chapter teaching us to love,and obey God's laws.It tells us how God's favour stayed with Naomi even in a different land and people she didnt know God made her life liveable.With all the pain of her loss she was sustained and provided for even the companion she had from Ruth was God given,finding someone who sticks with you all the way.Thats owesome!!!!

Ruth is showing use how to love each other. when you do love a person you would do any thing for them.
Agrineth's comment on 2/05/2012, 8:01am...
I think Ruth is showing us how to love,because when you love someone you must be prepared to do anything for them,just as God was prepared to give us Jesus,the only son He has,God wants us to go all the way with him no matter what difficulties and pains we come across in the way,lets give God our all
Timothy Wayne George's comment on 2/03/2012, 2:10pm...
We see in the book of Ruth, how the will of God is accomplished even when decisions are made that may seem opposite to what God would have wanted. Ruth's love for Naomi shows God's love for us in providing the kinsman redeemer the Lord Jesus Christ. It was the will of God for Ruth and Boaz to be married, and be the kinsman redeemer. God commended his love for us in that while we were sinners, Christ died for us. This is the greatest love story in the Bible and may God bless all of us for studying it.

when I read this I see disobedience if Naomi husband obeyed god instead of associating himself with the moabities who were idol worshippers his family would not have to go through this ,remember the lord said obedience is heaven first law
DELORES ACKER's comment on 1/09/2012, 6:48pm...
Ithink Ruth was a very good person but she was full with pain a husband and two sons was dead and she was left with no body and looking to God for answers but her daughter inlaw altho she was ggreaving and had that pain she dicided to to go with Ruth no matter were she was going she would go togeather so the pain would not be somuch on both of the the could pray togeather and support in the time of sorrow that is what Jesus say to help one other so this is a powerful lesson and we have to help each other the lesson in this is we have to reconize that we have pain and sorrow but we must not dewll on it we have to get up and move on and let God handle the grief it a lot to learn in this lesson

Tricia, I believe the answer to Ruth chapter 1:13
Tarry, means to stay with.
God Bless.

Strange land, different people,but God was still with Neomi. Ruth must have seen something different about her. When we know someone is very close to God don't we want to be near them?
DEBBIE's comment on 11/05/2011, 3:06pm...
With Ruth being the example to married women today,we sh,d lvaove our mothers-in-law so sh,d they regardless of the challenges of today n God wil bless us as long as our eyez r fixed on Jesus alone puttin in mind HE is a jeolous GOD.

RUTH's comment on 8/12/2011, 9:52pm...
The book of Ruth is very spiritfill, Ruth was a Moabite and wasnt allowed in Isreal but she loved her mother-in- law so much that she follow,Father was truly mercyful to them.LIKE HE IS TO US!
Kathay Allen's comment on 6/11/2011, 10:31am...
Many times, God's greatest blessings are hidden. Those who are humble and selfless, are the ones who find God's true treasures. And God knows that he can trust them with His great blessings, because they have the right spirit, and a wholehearted commitment to God. Ruth was such an example of the kind of person that God could trust, because of her character. It encourages me to strive to do better, to allow the Lord to develope those attributes in me, that I may be more pleasing to Him.

I ENJOY READING THE BOOK OF RUTH I WANT 2 REACH OUT AND HUG RUTH SHE WAS A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN INSIDE AND OUT
Regina cureton's comment on 6/30/2010, 8:06pm...
I really enjoy reading the book of Ruth.Obedient is the word to use when describing this woman.She knew that Naomi was with the true living God and she followed. There were moments when I felt God pulling at my heart telling me,' no dont do that or stop this he is not the man for you", and I still did what I wanted to do.I am now suffering because of my disobedience. That is why I love reading this story, Because Ruth could of stayed to continue worshipping a fake God . I dont think God forces you to do what he wants, he wants a willing vessel.I am in a place where I know I dont belong because of my disobedience. Now I have to go thru so many different challenges to get back to where I need to be in life.Poverty,single mom of four with two fathers who does nothing but lies to me all the time.A daughter who steals and not doing well in school,a son who is involved in Emo and two disobedient babies 1 and 4 years old.Sometimes I wish I was like Ruth. It is so beautiful to know that you are in the will of the lord, Because I know now that everything he has for us are good and not for evil.
Gaynell's comment on 5/06/2010, 12:02am...
How refreshing it is to experience an authentic and shear love and concern for someone like naomi a dependent a widow who could not offer ruth anything at all.
With no capacity for hope, life had dealth with Ruth as it had with her mentor Naomi who knew the Lord of Lords.
However, i see the Lord of the breakthrough setting ruth up,and since she can be trusted with little to nothing to be loyal to her mother-in-law, naomi's well being is secured.
The Lord is saying here, for your selflessness i have commanded the earth to bring you a harvest greater than that you have lost.
You've lost money, your covering (husband)her people in the since that her heart no longer longed to go home not even while her mother yet lived.
I truly see our Lord repositioning His children here in this story, by relocating these two women back to the blessed place, where He had commanded the blessings for their lives to flow in Bethlehemjudah Naomi's home.
Only those who can discern these things will partake of His perfect will and plan for there lives.
His ways are not our ways nor are His thoughts our thoughts.
These hurts we encounter through life i am persuaded that it is to bring us to an expected end of Christ, so we have to trust our Lord and follow Him as best and intently as one possibly can.
Our Lord bless the hearers of His words.
