THE HAPPY ENDING
Ruth 1:6
The things Naomi suffered and lost going down to Moab were hard to bear at the time. Yet, it was the way in which the LORD made Moab bitter so that she returned to rest with his people in the place where he had given them bread. It was the way in which the LORD made her to behold how he had freely given her more than she ever could have imagined! "And the women said unto Naomi, Blessed be the LORD, which hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, that his name may be famous in Israel. And he shall be unto thee a restorer of thy life, and a nourisher of thine old ageā¦" (Ruth 4: 14, 15).
My dear, suffering brethren, may the LORD make you to behold that he has not left you this day without Christ your Kinsmen. May he cause you to behold he has worked all that now appears bitter so that his name may be famous in you. What grace! Christ Jesus shall be unto thee the Restorer of Life and the Nourisher unto you the rest of your days!
