Take Notice
August 2, 2012
While standing in a checkout line, I was estimating my bill and trying to keep my son from wandering away. I barely noticed when the woman ahead of me shuffled toward the exit, leaving all of her items behind. The clerk confided that the woman didnt have enough money to pay her bill. I felt terrible; if only I had been aware of her situation earlier, I would have helped her.
In the book of Ruth, Boaz became aware of Ruths plight when he saw her gleaning in his fields (2:5). He learned that she was recently widowed and was the breadwinner for herself and her mother-in-law. Boaz saw her need for protection, and warned his harvesters to leave her alone (v.9). He supplied her with extra food by instructing his workers to let grain fall purposely (v.16). Boaz even addressed Ruths emotional needs by comforting her (vv.11-12). When Naomi heard about this, she said, Blessed be the one who took notice of you (v.19).
Are you aware of the needs of the people around youin your church, neighborhood, or under your own roof? Today, consider how you might help bear someones burden. Then you will be fulfilling Gods plan for you (Gal. 6:2; Eph. 2:10).
Help me Lord, to notice
The hurting, sick, and lost;
Guide me as I help them
Regardless of the cost. Schuldt
God works through us to meet the needs of those around us.
Read: Ruth 2:13-20
