Will You Go Where I Go?

Will You Go Where I Go?

Ruth 1


Call to Worship: Hosea 6:1-3 (ESV)

     “Come, let us return to the Lord;
              for he has torn us, that he may heal us;
              he has struck us down, and he will bind us up.
     After two days he will revive us;
              on the third day he will raise us up,
              that we may live before him.
     Let us know; let us press on to know the Lord;
              his going out is sure as the dawn;
         he will come to us as the showers,
              as the spring rains that water the earth.”

Scripture Reading: Isaiah 56: 3a, 4a, 6-8 (NLT)

     “Don’t let foreigners who commit themselves to the Lord say,
              ‘The Lord will never let me be part of his people.’

     “For this is what the Lord says:
         I will bless those eunuchs
              who keep my Sabbath days holy…

     “I will also bless the foreigners who commit themselves to the Lord,
              who serve him and love his name,
         who worship him and do not desecrate the Sabbath day of rest,
              and who hold fast to my covenant.
     I will bring them to my holy mountain of Jerusalem
              and will fill them with joy in my house of prayer.
         I will accept their burnt offerings and sacrifices,
              because my Temple will be called a house of prayer for all nations.
     For the Sovereign Lord,
              who brings back the outcasts of Israel, says:
         I will bring others, too,
              besides my people Israel.”
