In proper time there is a reward for good works

“Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said unto him, Why have I found grace in thine eyes, that thou shouldest take knowledge of me, seeing I am a stranger? And Boaz answered and said unto her, It hath fully been shewed me, all that thou hast done unto thy mother in law since the death of thine husband: and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy nativity, and art come unto a people which thou knewest not heretofore. The Lord recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to trust.” Ruth 2:10-12 KJV The Bible says “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Gal 6:9.. This is a great reference for the story of Ruth in today’s Bible reading. She had gone to a field to pickup leftover brains behind the harvesters and it was coincidentally the field of a relative of her father-in-law. She was amazed at his kindness because he was clearly making things easy for her. In return he informed her of how he had heard of her kind deeds to her mother-in-law. At the time that she was being kind to her Naomi, she was not doing it for financial gains. It was from the goodness of her heart and the love which she now had for Naomi and the Lord God. So, Are you doing good for the sake of the Lord? Are you feeling weary because you don’t see a line of sight to the reward? Don’t give up, keep at it with the right heart and our God who rewards in public that which done is secret will surely reward your labour of love in Jesus name.

Prayer: Dear Lord, I receive the grace not to be tired of doing good especially in kindgdom assignments. Help me to receive the rewarded in unexpected quarters in Jesus name. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾.kjv
