SOAP: Ruth 1 & 2

S: Ruth 1 & 2

O: God allowed a girl from an infamously bad town to be redeemed from her lineage and what people would have probably expected her to be.

P: Lord, every day I need to choose you - every moment. I was raised in chaos, and for a while I chose chaos, but I know better now and I want to do better and mo’ bettah. Help me Jesus to love like you. Thank you for redeeming me and for sending my hubby as my earthly redeemer, my Boaz. I pray for that same truth and redemption in the lives of my parents and siblings and other family Lord. Only you can show us what love is really about, so we can also love well. In Jesus name, Amen.

I mostly need to be more patient in my parenting. I expect a lot from my kids, because I know they're smart.
