*Contemplation (verse 34)
“In Ruth we behold the reward of virtue: she who chose poverty and humility is found worthy to become the ancestress of kings and of Christ Himself. God does not overlook faithful devotion, but raises the lowly to the heights of honour.”
+ St Jerome

Personal Reflection: Where might God be calling me to stay faithful in “small” or unseen areas of life? Do I believe that God can use my quiet loyalty for something greater than I can see?

Bible Knowledge Question: How does Ruth’s story end in chapter 4, and why is this significant for salvation history?

Prayer: Lord Jesus, You lifted Ruth from hardship to honour because of her loyalty and faith. Teach us to be faithful in every season, to trust Your timing, and to walk in humility as she did. Use our small acts of obedience for Your great purposes, and let our lives reflect Your love and faithfulness. Amen.
