After the dark time of the Judges, God graciously gives Israel a time where His Voice was suddenly accessible and throughout Israel again by the ministry of Samuel. Even so, Israel desires its own voice at the rejection of God's (1 Sam 8:7-9) in their request of a King instead of the Office God had given to them at this time. By the end of 1 Samuel, we see how people can be so hard-headed against God's Voice that they think He's being silent, when it's really people themselves who through disobedience choose not to hear Him!

As we examine the books of Joshua, Judges, and Ruth, we might get weighed down in the first two about the epic, nation-building, nation-moving, nation-disastrous truths to think the points of the story are far removed from us. But then Ruth tells us that even when we can't see it because things look so "ordinary," God's promises and His rescue still providentially takes place in the every day!

Gifts don't care about feelings, yet we approach Christ often considering our feelings and neglecting His gift.
