God Is Kind
Ruth 2:1-23 | Paul Harrington
Who is the kindest person you know?
1. The story so far…
- Ruth 1:20 Don’t call me Naomi. Call me Mara…
- But a glimmer of hope – Ruth 1:22
2. Enter Boaz!
- Who is he?
- Ruth heads out to collect some leftover grain (2:2)
- Note Leviticus 23:22
- As it turned out… (2:3)
- Just then Boaz arrived…
- Boaz is a good guy to have on your side
- Things are looking up…
3. How is this relevant to us in 21st century Adelaide?
- Our kindness impacts others
- But why is Boaz kind? Boaz reflects the character of God
- God is kind
