As Pastor Bill continues his teaching series through the book of Ruth, he'll be challenging you to be busy with the Lord's work and not become entangled in the affairs of this life. Ruth was working hard, and kept her commitments, while also sacrificially helping Naomi. When Boaz met Ruth, he knew Ruth was special, and he recognized her godly character. God providentially worked on behalf of Ruth and Boaz, bringing them together even though they weren't looking for each other.
