Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with big picture faith:

“I went away full, but the LORD has brought me back empty.”
(Ruth 1:21)

Naomi was telling it straight, Jesus:

There was a time when it felt like her dreams had come true.

Now, her dream had become a nightmare

and You did it.

But she was struggling with it the way I so often do:

She was lost in the moment.

Because her loss was so great
because what she was going through was so emotional

she was unable to see that’s all it was:

a moment.

It was a season of her life
that would soon pass.

Thank You for sharing this woman’s story with me, Father.

It’s a lot easier to see what You’re doing in somebody else’s life
especially when I can look back and see the beautiful way it ended.

The tide goes out
but with You…

it always comes back in.
