Let Go and Let God
Sandra Becker - 2015
Samuel’s biggest fear is to see Ruth marrying an Englischer. Ruth goes off to meet her aunt and everything seems to go well. But only for a while. When Samuel comes to know that Ruth is attracted to an Englischer, his worst fears come true. How will Samuel respond to Ruth’s infatuation? Will Ruth see the light and choose her family over a stranger? Or will she be swept away by the Englischer’s charms? Let Go and Let God is a sweet clean Amish Romance that weaves together family values, personal choices and above all, God's own designs for our lives. Start reading from here. CHAPTER 1: “I am so excited!” Ruth exclaimed. “I know. I am happy for you, dear Schweschder,” Mary replied. Ruth looked at her sister Mary and smiled. It was a beautiful morning in Lancaster County. The family had just finished breakfast, and Ruth and Mary were in the kitchen cleaning the dishes. The biggest part of their morning routine was already done. Ruth had woken up at dawn, collected the eggs, milked the cow, and then turned it out to pasture. While Ruth cared for the animals, Mary had gathered vegetables and helped her mother with the breakfast. “You will follow me soon enough,” Ruth said. Mary was a year younger than Ruth, and the two of them were very close. A few days before, Ruth had celebrated her fifteenth birthday, and she knew that it meant the advent of rumspringa. Most of her friends had looked forward to this as a time to be more social with boys of their age, but Ruth was more excited about the fact that it was also an opportunity to finally become a member of the church. Rumspringa was a time when teenage boys and girls were allowed a bit more freedom as they began to court and made a formal decision about whether to join the church and agree to live their lives in accordance with the rules of the Ordnung, the Amish community order. Ruth had seen some of her friends spend rumspringa at home, while others had gone to stay with relatives while they pondered their decision. In most cases, her friends had already made their decision, and they therefore used most of their time during rumspringa observing adults, learning from them, and emulating their behavior and values. Ruth was already learning from her mother the habits and work ethic of a respectable Amish lady. She had a deep faith in God and she knew that this would be her chance to prove her devotion to God. The dishes were soon done, and Ruth wiped her hands with a cloth. Mary had a dreamy look in her eyes. “Mudder told me that next year it will be my turn for rumspringa. I would love to go to the singings and spend more time with the boys.” Ruth smiled. She had felt the same way. She had watched from the aisles as her friends had become church members and started participating in the choir. She patted her sister on the cheek and said, “Sure. We will have a lot of fun together once you complete your rumspringa. Mudder will also give you a new dress next year.” “That would be wunderbaar. Will you be going to Ant Sadie’s haus?” “Yes. Father sent her a letter. She said that she would be delighted to see me again. It’s been quite a while since we visited her, not since Mr. Schwartz’s wedding.
