11/5/09 My breath prayer for the day comes from Ruth 4:15a, "He shall be to you a restorer of life." Ruth has been given a son out of her marriage to Boaz. This makes Naomi something close to a grandmother. The women of the village say these words to Naomi about the newborn that he shall be a restorer of life. Of course I took the words to mean that the God revealed in Jesus (who is in the birth line of this son born to Ruth) is the one who restores us to life. What a great concept....that we can be down and out, broke, broken, hopeless, tired...and God provides a restorer.
Love,
Lynn
