DAILY?READINGS: Deut. 17 to 18:8; Obadiah; Luke 11:14-36
And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi, Let me now go to the field, and glean ears of corn after him in whose sight I shall find grace. And she said unto her, Go, my daughter. Ruth 2:2
Naomi was in dire need. Ruth, the foreign girl, went out into the field of grain that was being harvested, and found more than enough for both of them. Our Lord Jesus has more than we need too, joy now and a great hope for the future. He gives us our daily spiritual food, but we have to be like Ruth and gather it each day from His Word. He is our “mighty man of wealth” and supplies every need. —G. Frear
But the priceless gifts of heaven,
God to us hath freely given.
Though the wealth of earth were proffered,
Naught would buy the gifts here offered. —J. Franck
