Ruth could not live in both places and she choose to follow her Mother in Law which led her to God Almighty. Lastly, we find Boaz vividly describing the wonderful providence of God. We have the ability to enjoy safety with God as an eagle protects her young. In this day in which we live, everyone knows and experiences the need for refuge. Only the Lord provides so richly.
People seek refuge in all sorts of activities, but they all fall short.
Only in Jesus Christ can we truly experience refuge from the storms of the world. May God Bless your continued study of His Word.
