Scripture:
Ruth 3:11 "Now, my daughter, do not fear. I will do for you whatever you ask, for all my people in the city know that you are a a woman of excellence".
Observation:
Boaz was speaking with Ruth about her redeemer and he said these words about her, "all my people in the city know that you are a woman of excellence". These are powerful words! She was the new kid on the block. She was gleaning in the fields as a poor person, but the whole city saw her as a woman of excellence.
Application:
Excellence gets you noticed! When you do things with excellence, people see it and a reputation is started. Ruth has only been there a short while and the whole city knew she was a woman of excellence. Her reputation of excellence made a way for her to experience the blessing of God. We should be people who's reputation goes before us and we should live lives that bring God's blessing.
Prayer:
Father, let my life be a life well-lived. Let me live a life of excellence. Help me to have an excellent spirit. Help me to treat people well and give me wisdom in every area today. You are amazing and it is a pleasure to serve You.
Your Son,
Jeff
