LESSONS FROM RUTH: PROVIDENCE


Last night we touched on God's providence. That means the Lord is behind the scenes providing for us in ways we cannot see but eventually will be revealed. Ruth for instance when she went out to glean in the fields (Ruth 2:1-3). She was led to the field of Boaz, her future husband. Their great-grandson would be king David (Ruth 4:21-22) and Jesus would of course come through this line. (Mat 1:5).
Not happenstance. Not circumstance. Not coincidence. Providence!
Don't be discouraged by your circumstances. It just might be God's providence. Trust the Lord because something good is coming!
