      2. Book of Esther: The Right Place, The Right Time

      1. Book of Ruth

      Cords of Love

      All of us are in a relationship of some kind and we usually want it to work, no matter what kind it is:

      A friendship

      A business partnership

      A family relationship or marriage

      A political relationship

      Even a spiritual fellowship

      Every relationship needs certain elements in order to succeed and flourish. I call these elements the cords of love based on Solomon's proverb where he says that, a cord of three strands is not easily broken (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12).

      In my view, there are five cords of love that keep relationships together and these are described in the book of Ruth.

      The book of Ruth is a wonderful story describing the love and devotion of a young woman who becomes a widow and takes care of her mother-in-law (who is also widowed) at great cost to herself. In this short book we see the five cords of love that help bind two people together
