Bible Passage
Ruth Marries Boaz (Ruth 2-4 (NIV)
Ruth and Naomi lived in Bethlehem- far away from Ruth’s home. Ruth worked hard to care for her friend Naomi. Ruth worked in Boaz’s field, collecting grain that the workers left behind. It was really hard work just to get enough grain for food!
But Boaz, the man who owned the field, was kind to Ruth. He told the workers to leave extra grain for her. He told them not to say unkind things to her. Boaz wanted to marry Ruth, even though he had to go ask one of her relatives if that was OKay. When the rela- tive said it was OKay, Boaz married Ruth. They had a baby named Obed. Obed was King David’s grandfather- which made Ruth the great-grandmother of a king!
Key Verse: “ ‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future’ ” (Jeremiah 29:11).
Bible Point: Hope in God’s good plans. Why should we have hope?

My Hope Is In The Lord
I can’t help but feel a little down
A little worried when I look around
That’s why my hope is in, my hope is in the Lord
I fix my eyes upon the God who gives
‘Cause all I need is what I have in Him
That’s why my hope is
My hope is in the Lord
My hope is in the Lord, I belong to him
He will never let me go!
My hope is in the Lord, I can count on him
My hope is in the Lord
I can’t help but feel a little down
A little worried when I look around
That’s why my hope is in, my hope is in the Lord
I fix my eyes upon the God who gives
‘Cause all I need is what I have in Him
That’s why my hope is
My hope is in the Lord
My hope is in the Lord, I belong to him
He will never let me go!
My hope is in the Lord, I can count on him
My hope is in the Lord
My hope is in the Lord, I belong to him
He will never let me go!
My hope is in the Lord, I can count on him
My hope is in the Lord
