Today I will be talking about trusting in God and using the book of Ruth as well as other aspects of the Bible, showing examples of how to trust God, to lean on Him and depend on Him. Ruth is a beautiful book that shows us friendship, love and companionship. These three key points I’ve name are the aspects of God. Friendship with God means having a beautiful intimacy with Him that goes beyond words. When you are a friend of God you long to be in His presence, putting Him above all else and making time for Him. When you have this type of relationship with God, longing for Him, trusting Him, loving Him, He knows what you want before you ask. He knows your hurts when you don’t know what to say and helps you through your pain. Then there is love, falling in love with Jesus is so beautiful. What does it mean to love God? To love God is to worship and praise Him, tell Him how awesome He is, how wonderful He is. To love God is to put Him first. The number-one commandment is to love God “with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength” (Mark 12:30). God’s love is unbreakable, loving Him the same way strengthens our love and relationship with Him. It is important to not the cares of life get in the way of you and God. You have to always make time for God reading His word, praying to Him, asking for forgiveness. Make Him first in your life. As it reads “Earth has nothing I desire besides you” (Psalm 73:25). To love God is to long for Him to seek right standing with God, thus giving us grace. When you know God, you can’t get enough of Him. Once we have tasted and seen that the Lord is good (Psalm 34:8), we yearn for more of his presence. Loving the Lord is more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. It is sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb. When you love the Lord and don’t have peace, He will give it to you because the peace of God surpasses all understanding. When you have a good relationship with God He blesses you with freedom. Remember where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty. Always remember God wants you to be free of bondage. He wants you free of worry, and as we all know, the cares of life and worry get us down. There’s no way around it because that’s life but that’s when God comes in to give you peace to help you shoulder the burden because remember what Jesus said, For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
