Ruth’s Loyal Love
After sad losses, Ruth chose to stay with her mother-in-law Naomi. She said, “Whither thou goest, I will go.” In Bethlehem, Ruth gathered grain in the field of a kind man named Boaz, who protected and later married her. Ruth became the great-grandmother of King David.

And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God:Ruth 1:16 (KJV)
