“I need to apologize, Jacob...”
Hannah glanced up at Jacob, and then away. “I was rude to you yesterday, and I’m very sorry. I know better than to speak harshly, let alone to someone who is being kind to us.”
“It’s my fault. I stuck my nose where it didn’t belong.”
Now she laughed outright. “Perhaps you did, but it was probably something I needed to hear.”
“Apology accepted.”
“Danki.”
“Gem gschene.” The age-old words felt curiously intimate, shared there on the bench with the sun slanting through golden trees.
“It’s a fine line,” Hannah said. “Giving him the extra attention and care his condition requires, but not being overly protective. I’m afraid I’m still learning.”
“You’re doing a wunderbar job.”
Which caused her to smile again, and then suddenly the tension that had been between them was gone.
He realized that what Hannah was offering with her apology was a precious thing—her friendship.
For now, he needed to be satisfied with that.
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God.
—Romans 8:28
The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer.
—Psalms 6:9
Sometimes life’s burdens can seem terribly heavy, and yet we have the assurance that all things work together for the good of those that love God. He has wonderful things planned for us—the very best things—and He loves us more than we can begin to imagine.
Hannah is a young mother who had envisioned a very different future for herself—she would have a houseful of children, relish the steady and faithful love of her husband, and live a plain and simple life. But even Amish lives are touched by tragedy. When she returns home, she is reminded of the comfort of family, and she also remeets Jacob. God knows Hannah’s hurts, and He is planning a future for her all along.
Jacob has endured his own tragedies, and yet to some degree he has come to terms with his solitary existence. But he doesn’t see himself as God sees him—as a beautiful creation. He doesn’t believe anyone would want to spend their life with him. Then one day he shows up to build a playhouse and finds his future waiting for him.
I hope you enjoyed reading A Widow’s Hope. I would love to hear from you. Feel free to email me at [email protected].
Together may we “always give thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 5:20).
Blessings,
