Refuge Under the Lord’s Wings

📖 “May the Lord repay you for what you have done! May you be richly rewarded by the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.” (Ruth 2:12)

The story of Ruth shows that faithfulness and courage never go unnoticed by God. Though she was a foreigner, a widow, and had no guaranteed future, she chose to remain with Naomi and trust in the Lord. That act of faith was recognized by Boaz and rewarded by God, who turned her life into a testimony of hope and restoration.

The same is true for us. At times, we may feel insecure or displaced, but when we seek refuge under the wings of the Almighty, we find protection, provision, and reward. Nothing done in love and faithfulness is ever in vain.

God does not forget silent efforts or faith cultivated in pain. He turns losses into new beginnings, tears into seeds of joy, and closed paths into doors of victory

Do not be discouraged: keep sowing love and faith. The reward may take time, but it will come at the perfect moment—abundant, complete, and transformative. Under the wings of the eternal God, there is always safety and hope.

How to Live Under the Lord’s Wings

• Remain faithful, even in hardship: Like Ruth, choose to trust God and be steadfast, for He honors perseverance.

• Trust in His provision: The Lord knows your needs and cares for every detail of your life.

• Sow love and hope: Every act of kindness and faith bears fruit, and God will reward what is done sincerely.

Prayer: Beloved Lord, I thank You for being my refuge and my sure reward. I give You my struggles, my pain, and my dreams, trusting that under Your wings I find rest and protection. Help me remain faithful, sow love, and trust in Your provision in every detail of my life. May my faith grow even in the midst of difficulties, and may my life reflect Your grace. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏
