Do you have some compassionate and generous people in your life who like to bless you? Perhaps you are one of those rare people who find great joy in serving or just being a blessing to others, even anonymously? Oh, I thank God for such people, my best friend and dear wife Dawn is one of those people! Did you know the Bible is filled with those types of people and that's because a genuine, life changing relationship with God very often produces generosity and compassion in a person! I think Mr. Boaz was that type of person. Over the past few days, we've met him in the story of two widows, Naomi and Ruth as found in the Bible book of Ruth. If you've been with us on this journey, this weekend Naomi advised Ruth to go to the threshing floor in Bethlehem and meet Mr. Boaz. Ruth did, and Boaz promised her that he would assume responsibility for them, seeing to the matter of their 'kinsman redeemer' the very next day.
