Psalm 34:18
Have you ever felt so empty that hope seemed impossible? Naomi returned to Bethlehem with nothing—her husband and sons gone, her future bleak. But in that desolate moment, Ruth chose to stay. Her loyalty wasn’t just love for Naomi; it was a quiet declaration of faith in a God she barely knew. Ruth’s simple choice to remain became the spark God used to begin a story of redemption that would echo through generations. God often begins His greatest work in our emptiness. Like Ruth, we may not see the bigger picture, but our faithfulness matters. When we stay present, walk with someone in pain, or trust God despite our brokenness, we plant seeds of restoration. Even when we can’t see the harvest, He is working. Today, let Ruth’s story remind you: God uses our loyalty, our small yeses, to bring about His greater plan.
