Ruth 1
God desires us to live together - to support and encourage one another, to assist us with physical needs, to pray with others, and to sharpen others. This is God's intent from the beginning.
God sent Moses with Aaron to rescue the Israelites - see Exodus 4.
David had his mighty warriors.
Luke provides us with a picture of the church as God intends for us in Acts 2:42-47.

Lord Jesus, please help me be another for someone else and find another for myself.
My Prayer: You are an awesome God who has delivered me from my own sin, redeemed me, rescued me, and blessed me beyond what I deserve. Thank You Jesus. Yet I am not worth such efforts because I worry. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome and turn from my sin towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, and mind and love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Give Lisa and myself strength and wisdom. Please continue to heal Lisa of her cancer and from the side effects of chemo. You have done so already - praise Jesus! Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and for them to choose You as their Lord and Savior. Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
But Ruth replied, “Don’t urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord deal with me, be it ever so severely, if even death separates you and me. v16-17
