Pray this Lazaroo in appreciative wonder:

“May I continue to find favor in your eyes, my lord,” she said. “You have put me at ease by speaking kindly to your servant—though I do not have the standing of one of your servants.”
(Ruth 2:13)

Hope. Gratitude. Humility.

No wonder You chose this woman
to be Your great-great-many times removed grandmother, Jesus!

She wasn’t even a Jew.

She was one of the hated Moabites!

No matter.

You chose her!

Just as You have chosen me.

Pray this Lazaroo in soul-deep gratitude:

“…She is the Moabite who came back from Moab with Naomi.”
(Ruth 2:6)

That was enough to permanently mark Ruth an outcast, Jesus.

The Jews knew the Moabites were descended from Moab
the son of Lot

born of an incestuous relationship
with his oldest daughter.

They were pagans, worshiping false gods
leading Israel away from You into sexual sin.

Yet You transformed her into one of Your ancestors – the ultimate insider!

just as You’ve transformed me
into Your child.
