Daily Bible Nugget #514, Ruth 1:13

The Nugget:

Rth 1:13  Would ye tarry for them till they were grown? would ye stay for them from having husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD is gone out against me.

My Comment:

I noticed that Ruth 1:13 was given as one of the important cross references for Job 23:10  in my post of March 13, 2019. That post may not have been posted at my Real Bible Study Facebook page, so it must be accessed here at www.realbiblestudy.com.

It is easy to become very discouraged and depressed when too many things go drastically wrong. We may feel, like Ruth, that “the hand of the LORD is gone out against me.”

Don’t let the devil get you down! Be encouraged by the cross references I have gathered for Ruth 1:13 shared below. They will raise your spirits, for sure!
