Living by the Book/Living by the Book Workbook Set (126 page)

Put yourself in Naomi’s place. Consider:

• Why did you leave home in the first place?

• In your attempt to make things better, what happened?

• How would you feel about yourself?

• How would you feel about God?

• How would you feel about Ruth?

Now put yourself in Ruth’s place.

• Would you have made the same choice to leave your home and go with Naomi? Why or why not?

• How would you feel to not only have to care for yourself, but also to take care of an older woman in a country strange to you?
