The Boaz Prayer- Ruth; Romance, Reedemption and Restoration

Have you ever discovered priceless gems in the most strangest of places? The Boaz Prayer is one of those priceless gems you will find in the most strangest of places- hidden in the deep, rugged, dark corners of a place called nowhere. Like a rose trampled on the ground, like an oasis in the middle of a parched desert, the Boaz Prayer found in the book of Ruth adds elegance, grace and romance to an otherwise depressing milieu. This is so especially when you realize that Ruth lived during the days when the judges governed and utter hopelessness filled the land. What an array of hope the Boaz Prayer affords to Ruth in particular and to many generations later. In spite of the bleak conditions of our times we need to be reminded that God still answers Boaz-like prayers. For those who will pray daring prayers, God can still turn our tragedies into triumphs, our tests into testimonies, our defeats into destiny and our mess into a message of Romance, Redemption and Restoration.
