Ruth in the Bible was a Moabitess. She was not of God's chosen people, the children of Israel. However, she became King David's great-grandmother, and, eventually, was placed in the line of Jesus Himself. God used her faith and diligence to work in the history of His people.
She was nobody, and He redeemed her.
She was disdained, and He brought her to a place of respect.
From dirt poor to honored, Ruth's story reminds me of what simple faith and obedience can do in the hands of a great God.
Her story is one of redemption and value.
So is mine.
What about your story?
