When Naomi and Ruth returned to Bethlehem, they were childless and helpless. As Naomi said to the people, “Don’t call me Naomi, Instead, call me Mara, for the Almighty has made life very bitter for me. I went away full, but the LORD has brought me home empty. Why call me Naomi when the LORD has caused me to suffer and the Almighty has sent such tragedy upon me?”
Childless and helpless, in the hearts of the two widowed women, they longed for the redeemer. And the gracious Lord provided Boaz for their redemption, Boaz redeemed them and married Ruth.
Not only Naomi and Ruth, we all need a redeemer . For all have sinned, and fall short if the glory of the God. We all struggle and suffer from sin, and we are all helpless and hopeless to save ourselves from sin.
And the gracious God provided a redeemer for all who would come to him.
As written in the book of Luke, an angel appeared to Joseph and said to him, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. For the child within her was conceived by the Holy Spirit. And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. "(Matthew 1:20-21 NLT)
So come to the Lord, Jesus Christ , He will save you from the sin, he will provide his redemption everyday.

Bible verses ,
So Boaz took Ruth into his home, and she became his wife. When he slept with her, the LORD enabled her to become pregnant, and she gave birth to a son. Then the women of the town said to Naomi, “Praise the LORD, who has now provided a redeemer for your family! May this child be famous in Israel. May he restore your youth and care for you in your old age. For he is the son of your daughter-in-law who loves you and has been better to you than seven sons!” Ruth 4:13-15 NLT
