PRince "BOaz" CHarming
This is something I thought worth repeating. My daughter heard it from a speaker at Liberty University where she attends.
Boaz was a man in the Book of Ruth; one of the books in the Bible. He may very well be the first 'Prince Charming". Ruth was young, beautiful and graceful. She was also a foreigner to the nation of Israel and a widow. As an outsider with no man, no status and no man, she was pretty much out of luck. In those days, having a good man to provide for you was essential. (sorry ladies :) To be an outsider almost guaranteed a life of despair.
In short; Boaz takes a liking to Ruth in spite of the strikes against her. Boaz was a little older, wealthy and had a good standing in the community. He decides he would "redeem" Ruth as was the custom and marries her and they live happily ever after.
Now that you have the background, this was the speaker's message to the ladies:
“Ruth patiently waited for her mate Boaz.”
While you are waiting on YOUR Boaz, don’t settle for any of his
relatives: Broke-az, Lyin-az, Cheatin-az, Dumb-az, Drunk-az, Cheap-az,
Lockedup-az, Goodfornothingaz, Lazyaz and especially his third cousin
Beatinyouaz. Wait on your Boaz and make sure he respects Yoaz!
Hope You Enjoyed! :)
