Naomi's Bitter Faith

re told something that helps us discern the Spirit’s purpose for us in this blessed and beautiful portion of Scripture. Naomi’s beloved died, and she was ‘left’ with her sons only. The Book of Ruth shows us what it was like to live during the days of the Judges. It reveals the presence of a believing remnant in apostate Israel. This family may not have been perfect, but they were believers in Yahweh. Lastly, the Book of Ruth shows us what it means to believe in God and His Word for the common believer in everyday life.
