Ruth 1:11-18
How we live is very important. Whether we realize it or not, people are watching us. They look to our character to see what is actually lived out. Every choice we make matters and affects those around us.
Naomi’s life was such an inspiration that Ruth went with her to a new country even when she did not have to go. The genuine love of Naomi led Ruth to want to be like her. Ruth wanted to follow Naomi and live out the spiritual example that she had lived out.
Bill was a rough person, but one day, a friend from work told him about a special church service. That evening, both Bill and his wife gave their lives to Jesus. Bill’s life completely changed. As the years passed and his family grew, their faithfulness led to more service to God, touching the lives of many around them.
The choice that Bill made that night is still resounding and echoing in the lives of people today. Bill never looked back or second-guessed his decision to follow Christ.
How about you? The choices that you make affect those around you. What lasting impression will you leave?

Oh the thought! As an octogenarian I still make choices that may be and often are not of my profession as a follower of Jesus. Reflecting God has caused reflection and change.
