A Breathe of Fresh Air

After reading through the book of Judges, the book of Ruth is really a breath of fresh air! We leave off in judges with a wild account of a scene taken directly from a page out of sodom and gommorah (spelling?). But in Ruth we see character traits worth standing and cheering for. We once again want to draw closer to God because somebody helps to point us in that direction. Iv'e known from experience that good habits are addicting just like bad habits. You can really get complacent with not exercising just like you can really get into exercising and want to do it more. You can really eat bad habitually, or on the flip side of that really crave eating well, because you are liking the results and crave more of the same. So it is with following God, it can seem terribly religious from the outside but the health inside is so good that you want it on a regular basis. Just like habits though, it's harder to start a good one, but once you do and stay at it.....
