What does this show me about God?
- God's law told farmers to leave the edges of the field for poor people. What does that law show you about God?
What does it show me about people — and about me?
- Boaz makes the kindness look like an accident so Ruth can keep her dignity. Why does the way you help matter as much as the helping?
What will I obey this week?
- What could you leave, give, or share this week without making a fuss about it?
Who will I tell?
- Who is going without something right now? What will you do about it?
Grow
Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
Pray
God, Boaz told his men to drop extra grain and not say anything about it. Help me be kind in a way that does not embarrass anybody.
