To God, the reckless are courageous; the unclean are forgiven; the foolish are loyal; the victimized are redeemed; the ruined are worthy. Through God’s eyes we all are transformed.
Mary’s importance has never been in question, but Matthew’s phrasing emphasizes her significance in the eyes of Christ-followers, especially those who walked with Jesus.
Though her life was filled with suffering and grief, the Lord’s sovereignty and goodness prevailed.
To some, because she has no way of knowing if Naomi’s people will accept her, Ruth’s decision to leave Moab and her family to go to a foreign land seems foolish, but the Lord fulfills her, not seeing foolishness but loyalty and faith.
