He said: “Then I cannot redeem it because I might endanger my own estate." Ruth 4:6
When our treasure and goals matter more than Gods plan we miss out on what God has in store for us. This unnamed man didn't want to risk his estate by doing right for Ruth and lost out on a historic moment to be part of Jesus' ancestry.
More than we care to admit, we choose to focus on our own desires versus pursuing Gods --- and become unname examples of halfhearted people. Better to risk the things of this world and pursue Gods plan than to accumulate them for our grave and have neither.
Stop looking at our estates today and start looking at people! They are our eternal assets.
