When Naomi decided to go back to the Promised Land, Ruth insisted on going with her.Because of Ruth's decision to follow Naomi to the Promised Land, and to accept Naomi's God, Ruth ends up being a part of Jesus Christ's lineage. She has a book in the Bible named after her and her story has been told throughout the ages. Ruth found her identity in God. She surrendered her life to Him.On the other hand her sister-in-law Orpah decided to remain in her pagan land with her people and was never spoken of again.
