Welcome to Living Grace of Las Vegas

One of the hardest things is for me to do is to sit still and let the Lord work in my situation. Chapter 3 of Ruth gives us an excellent example of working and waiting.
Waiting is not passive, it’s intentionally removing yourself from the outcome and creating space for God to move. What are you waiting for?

Ruth 3:18 “Then she said, "Sit still, my daughter, until you know how the matter will turn out."

The Book of Ruth moves quickly. Last week in Chapter 1, Naomi said, “Do not call me Naomi (Pleasant) but call me Mara” (Bitter).
Ruth will meet a close relative of Naomi’s that will turn their situation.
All the while, God is working behind the scenes to accomplish His will for one who has taken “refuge" under His wings.

2:12 The Lord repay your work, and a full reward be given you by the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings you have come for refuge.”

Pastor Richard Farris will be sharing the Word and reporting on his fruitful 3 weeks in Haiti.

It’s hard to believe that this beautiful love story could occur during the dark days of the Judges, but then there’s the Grace of God!
In our trying days, it’s a good reminder that no matter how dark things get, God is working in His world and in my life.

Israel finds themselves a victim of their own foolish promise. It seemed right at the time they made it, but it turned out wrong.
Today we end the book of Judges and rejoice in the Grace of God!

Judges 21:25 "In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes."
