Continued generosity. Not only did Boaz take care of Ruth’s needs while she was right there, he also helped provide for her in a way that she didn’t even realize. Read Ruth 2:15-16.

Also you shall purposely pull out for her some grain from the bundles and leave it that she may glean, and do not rebuke her.”
Ruth 2:16 NASB

God knows our needs. And Boaz knew what Ruth needed. As a result, he worked to make sure that she had her needs met, even if she didn’t know exactly how those needs were being met. Boaz instructed his crew to leave extra for her. And so they did and she had more than she needed.

God does the same with us. God knows our needs, even before we know them ourselves, and he is always working to meet the needs that we have. Sometimes he works in a way that we can see and readily understand, and sometimes we don’t see how he’s moving. Either way, God is still moving. Will we trust him to provide for us and the needs that we have?
