Ruth had every opportunity to return to Moab after her husband died, but she chose to stay with Naomi. Her words are a beautiful expression of loyalty.
Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God.
Ruth 1:16
Why Ruth refused to go back
Ruth loved Naomi and didn’t want her to face the future alone. She was also choosing to follow Naomi’s God, even though she was leaving her own country and people.
She didn’t know what would happen in Bethlehem. She had no promise of wealth, marriage, or security. She simply chose faithfulness.
And that decision changed her life. May God help us to be like ha Amen .
