Ruth 2:2-3 Inner Field of Grace

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 2:2–3 is not a story about chance, but about your inner field of awareness. Ruth’s request to Naomi is the decision of the I AM to move toward a condition it already prefers. Her joining the reapers is the act of imagining herself in a field blessed with grace; her hap—her favorable turn—occurs when she lands in the portion belonging to Boaz, the kin to Elimelech. Boaz represents a state of consciousness that recognizes merit and extends protection. When you assume you are guided to the right field, you are honoring the inner arrangement already in place. Your choices become the weather by which your inner weather shifts; what seemed random becomes providence when viewed through the I AM. So the trick is simple: enter the field with grace as a present-tense fact, dwell in that awareness, and let your attention land on the next indicated steps. The more Ruth-like you are—courageous, practical, open—the more your hap appears where you most need it.
