Is your life not turning out as you had hoped? Has God disappointed you? The trials of life test us to see if we will trust in the promises of God. On the surface, the book of Ruth would appear to be about friendship, and that certainly is one theme. However, more profoundly it is the story of people of Israel and the need for a Redeemer. God also desires to redeem your past, restore your future, so that you might find fulfillment in His gracious love!
