Hello everyone! I thought it would be nice to get to know one another’s Favorite Bible Story…not necessarily a story in the Bible but the story of what your favorite Bible verse or story is and why. This will probably be a very easy assignment for us all but with warmer weather well on it’s way, I know how hard it is to stay indoors, even for school work. Have fun with it and remember we only have two more BFS assignments left!
I always loved the story of Ruth and Naomi. The way she was willing to let her daughter-in-law go on to begin a new life after the death of her husband and son. That’s just a beacon of what true love is about. I guess by that my favorite verse should be 1 Corinthians 13 and the rules of love, however, my favorite verse is Philippians 4:13. I love this verse perhaps because my mom and dad always told my sisters and I that when we grow up we can do or be anything we want! The word can’t or cannot was simply not allowed in our home. My dad’s famous words were, “can’t ain’t a word!” In the same sense Ruth’s testimony of love is the same as the ideas that I have about Philippians 4:13. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Ruth knew that she had to go on with her life even after losing her husband and her son and she didn’t want to keep Naomi from being able to have a new start for herself. Full circle.
Have a blessed week!
I was a little late in completely my assignment. What a great truth in your favorite Bible story.
Thanks,
