How has God shown Himself as your comforter and provider, despite your disappointments and discouragement? The example of Ruth and Naomi demonstrates the tension of living with disappointment, grief and bitterness, yet being driven by faithfulness and loyalty. Staying glued to the the foundational belief that God will provide changes our perspective. Despite being disillusioned, Our Father loves us beyond our imagination. Our grit and resilient persistence are over balanced with His provision.
“It has well been said that faith is not believing in spite of evidence but obeying in spite of consequence. When we commit our lives to the Lord, what happens to us happens by way of appointment and not by accident.” - Warren W. Wiersbe, Be Committed (Ruth & Esther)
