As we come to the end of the story, all of God's purposes are finally revealed. What began as a story of famine, sorrow, and death ends in fullness, joy, and life. There's a happy ending for Naomi, Ruth, and Boaz, and we come face-to-face with the reality that all of God's designs are for the good of His people.

But what about us? What does this story say to us? How do we cope when our story has an unhappy ending? The story of Naomi and Ruth answers this question. As it transcends the simple story of three people in Bethlehem, this scripture points beyond itself to God's ultimate good in sending His Son to save sinners.
