But Ruth said, "Do not urge me to leave you or turn back from following you; for where you go, I will go, and where you lodge, I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God,my God. Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried. Ruth 1:16-17
This was Ruth's famous declaration to Naomi with her commitment to follow her back to Judah. This faith commitment would change Ruth's life forever as she found a home, a husband, and a place in the lineage of David. These words are often made in connection with weddings, but they need to be made in connection to Jesus as well.
