I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 28th of October, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.
We start in the Book of Ruth 2:12:
”The Lord repay your work, and a full reward be given you by the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings you have come for refuge.”
Then we go to Galatians 6:9, in the New Testament:
”And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”
This is such a beautiful story, my dear friends. It has touched my heart very deeply this morning. When we think that Ruth, who was not a Jew, came back to Israel with her mother-in-law, Naomi, to look after her. Boaz noticed it, which is why she found favour with him. Not only did he favour her, but he eventually married her. Her husband had died, remember, and she was a widow and gave birth to a son, and that son went right down the lineage to Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the world. So Ruth is of the line of Jesus. We’re not talking about the fact that Jesus Christ came straight from Heaven, we know that, but He was born through the line of which Ruth had the privilege of being part of.
I want to say to you today, you must do something for someone who has no idea who you are, and has no idea how they got that blessing, so that the Lord Jesus Christ Himself can bless you for your good works. I’ve seen it before.
Let me give you an example: I went to the hairdresser the other day, and I had my hair cut, and as I got up to pay, he said, "It’s already been paid.” He said, “You know the man who was in the chair next to you?” I said, ”Yes.” He’s paid for your haircut.” I said, ”Where is he?” I wanted to thank him. He said, ”Look out the window. You see that blue BMW that’s just reversing out?” He said, ”That young man paid for your haircut.” Folks, that touched me so deeply because he didn’t even want me to know who he was and that is a blessing.
Today, do the same thing. Boaz saw what Ruth was doing for Naomi and because of that he blessed her. Not only did he bless her, he married her. Not only did he marry her, but she had a child from the line of David.
May God bless you as you do something today for someone who will never know it was you, except the Lord.
Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day. Goodbye.
