Ruth

Ruth was a young woman from the land of Moab. She married a man from Israel, but sadly he passed away. Ruth's mother-in-law Naomi decided to go back to Israel, and she told Ruth to stay in Moab.

But Ruth loved Naomi so much that she said, "Where you go, I will go. Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God." Ruth chose to stay with Naomi and follow God!

In Israel, Ruth worked hard picking leftover grain in the fields to feed herself and Naomi. A kind man named Boaz noticed how loyal and hardworking Ruth was. He helped her and eventually married her! Ruth became the great-grandmother of King David. Ruth teaches us about loyalty, kindness, and how God rewards faithfulness.
