Dear God
Hi,
I am writing this letter to you out of extreme urgency, otherwise I
wouldn't have disturbed you. You know about the recent hailstorm in
my place. Well, it has destroyed me. Everything in my farm was
destroyed. My corn and kidney beans were almost ready and all it
needed was a rainfall but instead of rainfall came a storm. If it had
lasted for short period it would have been OK, but unfortunately it
lasted for an entire night. It has put me at a serious disadvantage, you
see God, my sole source of income is that farm and now it is
completely destroyed. Nothing is left. If I leave it like this my family
will die of hunger, since we will not have anything to eat. I can't sit
still and do nothing about it. I need 100 pesos to buy the seeds and
resow my field all over again and buy some food till the next harvest.
So dear God, please help me. I know you will not disappoint me.
Sincerely Yours,
Rancho, the farmer

th He put the letter inside an envelope and addressed it to “God, 7 Heaven”
and placed a stamp on it and dropped it in the mailbox. The workers at the post
office were preparing the letters to mail when they came across the letter
addressed to God. The postman who came across this letter became curious
because he had never seen a letter addressed to God. He wanted to open the
letter but his job ethics stopped him from doing so. He decided to take the letter to
the Postmaster. The Postmaster was a very nice and kind gentleman. He always
helped people in any way he could. When the postman gave him the letter, he
looked at it and said, “It takes a man with strong faith to start a communication
with God. I wish I had such strong faith.”
After much thought, he decided to read the letter and perhaps reply it. He
opened Rancho's letter. Little did he know that replying the letter would need
more than good intention, pen and paper. Rancho needed a lot of money but the
postmaster didn't have any. Since he had already decided to help Rancho, he
decided to give part of his salary, and he asked his friends and co-workers to
contribute. But it was impossible for him to collect 100 pesos. He was happy that at
least 70 pesos were collected. So he put the money in an envelope and signed it as
“God” and asked the postman to deliver it to Rancho's house.
When the postman arrived at Rancho's house and delivered the letter to
him, Rancho was exhilarated beyond means. And he kept repeating Thank you
God! Thank you God! I knew you wouldn't let me down.
Rancho had very strong faith in God. He was not surprised when he
opened the envelope. But as he was counting the money he became very angry.
God couldn't have made mistake in sending the money. So he took out paper and
wrote to God again. Then he placed a stamp on it and put it in the mailbox. When
the postman took the letter out, he immediately took it to the postmaster. The
Postmaster quickly opened the letter and everyone in the post office gathered
around him wanting to know what Rancho wrote to God.

Dear God
I am really grateful to you for sending the money. I knew you wouldn't let my family
go hungry. Of the money you send me I only received 70 pesos. Please send me the
rest. I really need the money. But, this time please, God don't send it through the
mail, because the people working here in this post office are all a bunch of thieves.
