Ruths first husband died, but instead of returning to her own country and people she decided to stay with Naomi, her mother in law. She met Boaz and fell in love with him and it was around this time she told Naomi "Your God will be my God". She has seen what God had done for the people and so accepted Him as the God she should worship.
God allows us to accept or reject whatever we please. Free will.
There are many lesson we can learn from Ruth. One lesson is that God can use anyone to bring about his will. You do have to be an Israelite to be in the Birth line of Jesus. All Israel must have known that Boaz was the blood line that the Messiah was comming through, and he was getting old. Ruth was obedient to Naomi and God worked out the marriage.

Naomi was of the people of Israel and as such was one of God's chosen people, and though she initially mourned and bewailed her fate at the hands of God when God took away her husband and two sons; her daughter-in-law, Ruth, brought her comfort and God's blessing when she married Boaz and brought up Ruth's son, Obed. (Ruth 4.16) So I reckon her final relationship with God is peace.
Yes Ruth was devoted to God. In the book of Ruth 1:16, Ruth tells Naomi, "Your people will be my people And your God will be my God." The Book of Ruth oozes with love and sincerity. Yes Ruth was a follower of the One true God. God chose her to be an ancestor of the Lord Jesus Christ.
