H^^ET It is the Book of Ruth which we have f r » c SB *r.h 1 -sir., 28 6-9 reading The golden Dr. Newton text. "Thy people shall be my people, end thy God my God." Ruth 1:16 • • • IN SEARI H OF BREAD Is AMINE in Judah, where Elime- * lech and his wife. Naomi, and th*ir sons. Mahlon and Chilton, dwelt, drove them to Moab, in search of bread Elimelech died, and the sons married young women of M»ab. Ruth and Orpah And then the sons died Naomi, feeling that she must not longer remain in Moab, announced her intention to return to her native land, and bads Ruth and Orpah farewell. In one brief decade Naomi had lost husband and sons, and now she longed for home. • * • "INTREAT ME NOT TO LEAVE THEE” ORPAH accepted Naomi's suggestion. and turned away to her own people; but not so with Ruth She loved Naomi. She could not give her up Naomi had done something for Ruth in those years of sorrow and loss. Tntreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee; for whither thou goest. I will go: and where thou lodgest. I will lodge Thy people shall be my people. and thy God my God. Where thou diest, I will die, and there will I be buried The Lord do so to me. and more also, if ought but death part thee and me." With these sublime words. Ruth lashed herself to Naomi, and together they started on the long trek to Bethlehem • • * WHEN FAITH CO NQ IE RS HERE we witness conquering faith -conquering faith in the hearts of Naomi and Ruth And they come to Bethlehem It was the harvest season, and Naomi directed Ruth to glean >n the field of Boax. a wealthy and generous-hearted ciitien of Bethlehem. Faith in action' And the world loves the story of Ruth becoming the wife of Boax. and thus the mother of Obed. the grandfather of David the king tn the ancestral line of Jesus Christ, the King of kings. And Naomi, through her conquering faith, tie Id in her arms the little baby. Obed. and dreamed of God's unfolding purposes to bless the world In this unsurpassed romince we witness faith in adversity, faith in association, faith in conduct, faith in claim, faith in confidence, and faith tn a glorious climax.

Huth Ruth elave unto Naomi She could not do other wise 'Truth is stranger than fiePaa." And all hiatory was enrtched It Is ever ao when faith conquers Thu. the poet states the ease: "Gars ssnes; se wyrie»,'>» asyi, H, «e pertoros.
