Ruth & Naomi’s House
Ruth 1:16-17

August 19 Update:
It has been a while since we have posted an update. We have still been meeting and still working through the book of Proverbs.
Last night we had a new sister join us and the evening turned into the most beautiful night of fellowship. The entire evening was a very tearful reminder for all of us of what a special group we are a part of.
We are all learning to trust and to be trustworthy. We are learning how to open up vulnerable spaces in our hearts and allow people who have earned the right to come into those vulnerable spaces.
We only looked at one verse last night. Romans 6:14. We had a quick conversation about whether it was a promise or a command.
A promise is something that God does. It is something that he has made available to us through Christ.
A command is something that is our responsibility.
We talked about how within Romans chapter 6 there are many specific commands that Paul makes with the promise that sin shall not rule over us. We can choose to sin with our free will, but sin cannot rule over us when we are in Christ.
Praise the LORD!
HOMEWORK:
This week, take some time to read through chapter 21 of Proverbs. Pick one verse that stands out and maybe look at that verse or write down a few thoughts about it or look up original words in Hebrew so that we will each have something to share next Tuesday.
We will spend the first 15 minutes or so of Bible study talking about what we learned in Proverbs 21 and then we will move onto reading together in Proverbs 22.

ḥeseḏ
ḥeseḏ = God's steadfast, loyal, covenant love, encompassing mercy, grace, kindness, and faithfulness, often translated as "lovingkindness" or "steadfast love," representing an active, undeserved commitment to those in relationship, expecting nothing in return. It reflects a deep, reliable bond, prompting compassionate action, and is a core attribute of God's character towards His people, also expected in human relationships.
