We have come to one of my favorite parts of our study; Boaz spots Ruth in the field and asked who she is in Ruth 2:5-6. The servant answered "It is the young Moabite woman who came back with Naomi from the country of Moab.".
My friend, what a beautiful picture of the providence of God as we see how God led Ruth to the field of Boaz, remember Ruth does not know Boaz at this point nor did she know that was his field. We also see how God led Boaz to visit his field while Ruth was there, she could have easily been resting in the shelter provided when he came or had finished and gone home, but by the grace of God she was out gleaning where Boaz could see her.
Ruth may have come to the field as a poor widower but God was about to create a new relationship that would completely alter her circumstances.
My friend, just as God is working behind the scenes in Ruth and Boaz’s life, He is working behind the scenes in our lives also to fulfill His will for our lives.
We will see what happens next as Ruth and Boaz meet in our next post. Until then, have a blessed day.
