“I was trying to make you mad.”
Leah jerked. “What?”
Henry’s lips shifted into a gentle smile. “While you were angry, you forgot about the storm.”
Her anger left as quickly as it had come. “You knew I was terrified.”
“Ja.”
She blushed. “I didn’t want you to see.”
The good humor left his expression. “I understand.”
Leah stared at him and wondered if he did understand, but she didn’t want to discuss her fear anymore, and she prayed and hoped that he would keep her weakness to himself. “You won’t tell anyone?”
He appeared confused. “About—”
“That I’m a coward and deathly afraid of thunderstorms.”
His eyes widened. “You’re no coward, Leah. A coward wouldn’t have run out into the storm to see her horse to safety.”
Leah blinked, pleased by his words.
“I’ll not say a word about today, Leah.” Henry looked sad, and Leah struggled with the urge to do something to make his sadness go away. “No one will know that you spend any time here with me in the store. Your secret is safe.”
I hope you’ve enjoyed visiting the Amish village of Happiness in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. I love writing about all of the wonderful people who live there. In Her Forgiving Amish Heart, Leah Stoltzfus meets up again with Henry Yoder, her cousin’s best friend. Henry got into a bit of trouble when he and Isaac were younger and on rumspringa, and he unintentionally hurt Isaac and others within his Amish community.
Leah never thought she’d marry. She’d never had a sweetheart or any man’s attention. She’d resigned herself to the fact that she’d only have her craft shop in her future...until Henry shows her the possibilities of what it could be like to have more...
If you enjoyed Her Forgiving Amish Heart, you may want to try A Secret Amish Love, Leah’s sister Nell’s story, and Her Amish Christmas Sweetheart, about Leah and Nell’s sister Meg, the middle daughter of Arlin and Missy Stoltzfus.
I hope you will continue to join me as I return time and again to Happiness where the Amish love, learn and raise children while being faithful to the Lord.
I wish you blessings, good health and much love.
Warmly,
Rebecca Kertz
