Loyalty

Ruth 1:16-17
But Ruth said,
“Do not press me to leave you
or to turn back from following you!
Where you go, I will go;
where you lodge, I will lodge;
your people shall be my people,
and your God my God.
Where you die, I will die—
there will I be buried.
May the Lord do thus and so to me,
and more as well,
if even death parts me from you!”

A soft heart that could not bear
to see another suffer?
Or a stubborn mind
that would not be moved aside.
The softness
and the steel
go hand in hand.
Caring demands tenacity,
singularity of purpose
the will to make a difference
and the stamina to go after the desired goal.
Anchored in a heart filled with love.
