When I studied Ruth, I was amazed by how many biblical concepts and values were packed into such a small book! In today's episode, we dig into Ruth to take away 3 key points:
- Hesed is something we should all strive for. This word wraps up many of God's attributes into one word -- love, covenant faithfulness, mercy, grace, kindness, loyalty, acts of devotion, and loving-kindness that goes beyond the requirements of duty.
-God uses the faithfulness of ordinary people to accomplish his extraordinary plan
- God's plan will always come to fruition and we can't do anything to mess that up!
