12 The Lord recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to trust.
13 Then she said, Let me find favour in thy sight, my lord; for that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken friendly unto thine handmaid, though I be not like unto one of thine handmaidens.
14 And Boaz said unto her, At mealtime come thou hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she sat beside the reapers: and he reached her parched corn, and she did eat, and was sufficed, and left.
15 And when she was risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, Let her glean even among the sheaves, and reproach her not:
16 And let fall also some of the handfuls of purpose for her, and leave them, that she may glean them, and rebuke her not.
She was favored of the Lord. She was not given a lot, but generous for her station in life. She sounds like a sweet girl.
I wonder what vinegar was like then.

The goal of this is to read more scriptures, think about them more, and understand them better. I hope to post as near once a day as I can. Most of the time I use muscle testing to find the specific scriptures I need to read that day.

I've been reading all your entries
I haven't commented because it seems you say it very well :)
Oh, cool. Thanks for reading and keeping up with me. I'm so used to your comments that when I don't see them I think you're taking a break from me ;)
an interesting tidbit about Ruth is that she is in the ancestor bloodline of Jesus.
oh, and I was taking a break from the internet in general :) not from you.
