Praying through Ruth 1:19

Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for all that You have taught me from this simple story in the book of Ruth. Forgive me for the times I have acted like Naomi, stepped outside of Your will for my life, and found myself in deep distress and defeated. You are the Good Shepherd Who searches for Your sheep, whenever we wander far away, and You are our Kinsman-Redeemer. I praise and thank You for the incredible privilege of being Yours and the radiant joy that is mine when I abide in Christ and He in me. Thank You that all Your ways are pleasant, and all Your paths are peace. In Jesus' name, AMEN.
