Hi Kids!
Today we’re going to hear a story about two women, Ruth and Naomi, who fell under hard times. Both women had lost their husbands, and in their time, that was very difficult indeed because they had no one to take care of them. However, Ruth and Naomi had faith in God and promised to follow God wherever He led them. Watch the story below by Crossroads Kids’ Club to find out what happened to Ruth and Naomi and why it is so important to follow God.
Isn’t it so great that we have a God who wants us all to be a part of his family and who will help us in times of need? Ruth and Naomi were blessed in receiving God’s help because they followed Him even though they were experiencing a hard life. Sometimes, things in life don’t always go to plan, and you may find yourself in difficult situations like Ruth and Naomi, but remember, God is always there for you and will help you. All you need to do is follow Him.
Today’s activity is a coloring page depicting Ruth working or “gleaning” in the fields. Download/print the pdf below to get started.
