Get Your Hope Back (3 of 3)
Series: The Invisible Hand
Scott Maze
Ruth 4
Early on, the story of Ruth is a series of setbacks for the story's main characters, a couple of women, Ruth and Naomi. The rest of the story is their climb back. It's kind of a Cinderella story, only so much better! And you'll see why in the moments to come.
Why should you look at the Ruth right now? First, because we desperately need hope in our day. Ruth is a story to get your hope back. Visualize this: picture hope as a rope. Picture your invisible hope as something that is visible like a rope. We are in Fort Worth, Texas - cowboy country! Think of your hope as a lasso for a moment? What is your lasso attached to right now? Where you attach your hope?
Some of you attach your hope to better health for you or someone close to you. Some attach your hope to more money or a political candidate. Still others attach your hope to better grades and a scholarship for a better future. Whenever you attach your hope to anything in this life, your hope can be shaken. If your day-to-day hope is in political candidates, nations, grades, or friends, your hope can be crushed. But when you place your hope in Christ, you attach your hope to something that cannot be move.
Ruth is a story to get your hope back. Ruth raises your hope level. Ruth speaks of bright hope for dark days.
Second, the story of Ruth is a short novel for you to trust in God. You know, the Bible alone is the only book that has the answer to sin, sorrow, and death. Science doesn't have the answer. Philosophy doesn't have the answer. And medicine doesn't have the answer to all that crushes us in this life and the next. But God does. The Word of God has the answers to life's questions. Friend, you can trust God. And Ruth is a short novel to help you put your trust in Almighty God. Let Ruth show you why you place your trust and your hope in Jesus Christ today.
