ARE YOU OK WITH OK?
If you've settled thinking this is all I'm good for or good at, then you need to hear this. There is more for you! There is more within you! There is more God gave you and wants to give you! He is a giver! Why settle for OK and mediocrity, when a God of excellence is the one we serve!
Ruth was OK with being considered a worker of Boaz by the end of chapter 2. She wasn't expecting much more. Imagine where she started and now where she is. There was no identity in Moab to having an identity in Judah. Having no god to having the one almighty God. Having nothing to being given more than she deserved or needed because of grace! She was OK with where she was. But, thank God for a Naomi in her life to show her there could be more. You don't have to live the rest of your life worrying about me. You don't have to worry about being alone for the rest of your life. You can be safe, secure, and provided for in the loving arms of Boaz ... Jesus!
That's your story! You think this is it, but there are "Naomi"s in your life that have, and are, and will tell you there could be more. God has given you something, His grace to realize there is always more with Him. He will protect, serve, provide, keep, and bless you in His arms. Just believe not in the "Naomi"s but in the message God is speaking through those people in your life.
You need to have faith that the God that has brought you up to here, He is able and willing to lead you on! Dont' be OK with OK. Go for excellence because God is excellent!
Praise Him for His mighty acts; Praise Him according to His excellent greatness! - Psalms 150:2
O Lord, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth! - Psalms 8:9
How excellent is thy loving kindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings. - Psalms 36:7
O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. - Psalms 8:1
Enjoy The Ride,
