Here is the "Reading Schedule" for Week 2:

Here are the #VerseoftheDay 📖 for Week 4:
Monday
"And the closest relative said, "I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I jeopardize my own inheritence. Redeem it for yourself; you have my right of redemption, for I cannot redeem it." Ruth 4:6

Tuesday
"Moreover, I have acquired Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of Mahon, to be my wife in order to raies up the name of the deceased on his inheritence..." Ruth 4:9

Wednesay
"So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife, and he went in to her. And the Lord enabled her to concieve, and she gave birth to a son." Ruth 4:13

Thursday (Reflection Day)
"Salom was the father of Boaz, Boaz was the father of OBed, Obed was the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David." Ruth 4: 21-22

Friday (Reflection Day)
"You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy..." Psalm 30:11

"And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from thier sins." Matthew 1:21

Here are the #Reflections for Week 4:
Monday
Ruth is in love with Boaz, yet he is struggling over redeeming her. His first option to redeem her is to so via "another man". Have you ever felt conflicted over where your redemption comes from? Who has a chance to redeem you before the Lord does?

Tuesday
The picture gets painted (again) the our Lord Jesus is whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of our sins. How often do you seek redemption?

Wednesay *
Finally Ruth is free to marry Boaz! But that's not all - the Lord enabled her to concieve too. So many blessings after such along period of being barren. What about you? Are you experienceing a period of fruitfulness or are you going through a barren season? What do you need to do to show God you trust in his timing?

Thursday
As we conclude our study of Ruth we have come full circle. Naomi has gone from bitter to blessed. Ruth has gone from barren to fruitful. How did they do it - through thier relationship with Jesus Christ.
Evaluate your relationship with Christ.
When was the last tiem you:
Prayed?
Attended Church?
Tithed?
Volunteered your time?
Forgave?

Friday *
One last note - What we LOVE about the Book of Ruth is that it shows us that even if our relationsihp with Christ is off or even non-existent, this book shows us that all we have to do is reach out to God and our lives will turn around.
What did I learn from Ruth?
How am I a "Modern Day Ruth"?
How has the Lord redeemed & restored me?
