The end is another beginning! – Ruth 4: 13-22
Final part: the end is another beginning of a brighter future.
We hopefully will be renewed and sustained in our old age and run the race to the finishing line. But then what?
The end is another beginning.
All their life in this world … had only been the cover and title page: now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story which no one on earth has read: which goes on for ever: in which every chapter is better than the one before.
C.S.Lewis on heaven.
There came a day when Ruth went home to Naomi and said “Naomi I’ve seen him, I’ve seen Boaz!’
At the beginning of our end, on that day we will see him, we will see him whom we have given our lives to.
Oh, that will be … glory for me …
Glory for me … gory for me …
When by His grace I shall look on His face,
That will be glory, be glory for me
Charles H. Gabriel
There came a day on seeing Boaz when Ruth dropped to her knees and bowed down with her face to the ground.
John writes: “When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. I am the Living One; I was dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever!” Revelation 1:17-18
Ruth’s destiny was Boaz and yours and mine is Jesus. He is alive and he is waiting for us.
Friends I hope these thoughts from this amazing story of Ruth have blessed you.
