My Favorite Biblical Character…
Posted by 1opinionatedchica on January 15, 2009
This was requested, and I’m not ready to take the poll down, but this was just so simple that I had to do the post real quick. Ruth is my favorite Biblical Character. She gave up everything to follow her mother in law. She gave up her family, her god(s), her friends…and told Naomi….Where you go I go. The God you worship is the God I worship.
And you know what, God blessed her. He gave her a good husband that she loved and she was highly honored in that she is one of the three women that are named in the genealogy of Christ. Think about that, she was so much of a blessing to her Mother-in-law that God placed her in the line of Christ, and actually had her named……such and honor. You have to be good to get that honor.
(that was all very paraphrased….go and read the book of Ruth and the first chapter of Matthew to get the full story)

P.S. I also have another blog that I’m starting up. You’ll see a lot about womanhood there, Ruth will eventually be mentioned. (It’s not just about womanhood….eventually manhood too….it’s more a how to live blog.) 2bchanged.wordpress.com. There are no posts at the moment…..
