The words from the mouth of Ruth in chapter one still stand as some of the most beautiful, poetic, and powerful words of what love looks like and what it does. Her faithfulness and dedication to Naomi extended far past just this human relationship, as she also placed her life, her identity, and her future into the hands of the God of Israel. It is in this declaration of love and in this leaving of her past that we will find hope starts to emerge where nothing but chaos had reigned!
