new

we had a new teacher yesterday - mr B himself! (no, not Boaz, of Ruth, but note the similarities in name... heheh.)

it was great to work through the 2nd chapter of Ruth from the three main characters' perspective - the bitter, now hopeful Naomi, the righteous, and kind Boaz, and the humble, obedient Ruth. and praying and sharing together in a larger group of brothers and sisters was a good experience as well!

The life of the godly is not a straight line to glory, but they do get there.

read it for yourself, to find out more.
