OUR FATHER WHO GIVES FAVOUR TO THE HUMBLE

The book of Ruth chapter 2 verse 10 says this;

At this, she bowed down with her face to the ground. She asked him, “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you notice me—a foreigner?”

Ruth, in her encounter with Boaz, was puzzled by his favour toward her but she conducted herself humbly before him.

She, not knowing that the story of her compassion for her mother-in-law had preceded her, asked Boaz why he was singling her out from among the other gleaners and further to that, why he would concern himself with her when she was a foreigner in the land.

Ruth's humility and sincerity gained her great favour in the eyes of the leaders of the land and she was integrated into the fabric of the Messianic lineage when she became the wife of Boaz who was the father of Obed who was the father of Jessie who was the father of King David.

Amen.
