Ruth's at the threshing floor. This is an interesting chapter, Naomi basically tells Ruth to let Boaz know she's available for marriage. What strikes me most about this chapter was this:
10 "The LORD bless you, my daughter," he replied. "This kindness is greater than that which you showed earlier: You have not run after the younger men, whether rich or poor. 11 And now, my daughter, don't be afraid. I will do for you all you ask. All my fellow townsmen know that you are a woman of noble character.
Boaz tells Ruth, that his fellow townsmen know that she is of Noble character. I believe too that it's not because she goes around saying look at me, look at what I've been through, I've risen above my circumstances and I still trust in my God.
I believe she was meek, she was hard working and dependable. I believe Ruth would've been the best friend you could ask for. I think she's in the bible for women to take a look at and say I should be more like her.
