A Letter To God

A man worked in a post
office. His job was to
process all mail that had
illegible addresses. One
day a letter came to his
desk, addressed in
shaky handwriting to
God. He thought, "I
better open this one and
see what it's all about."
So he opened it and it
read: "Dear God, I am a
83 year old widow living
on a very small pension.
Yesterday someone
stole my purse. It had a
hundred dollars in it
which was all the money
I had until my next
pension check."
"Next Sunday is
Mother's Day, and I had
invited my last two
friends over for dinner.
Without that money, I
have nothing to buy
food with." "I have no
family to turn to, and
you are my only hope.
Can you please help
me?" The postal worker
was touched, and went
around showing the
letter to all the others.
Each of them dug into
his wallet and came up
with a few dollars. By
the time he made the
rounds, he had collected
96 dollars, which they
put into an envelope and
sent over to her.
The rest of the day, all
the workers felt a warm
glow thinking of the nice
thing they had done.
Mother's Day came and
went, and a few days
later came another
letter from the old lady
to God. All the workers
gathered around while
the letter was opened. It
read, "Dear God, How
can I ever thank you
enough for what you did
for me?" "Because of
your generosity, I was
able to fix a lovely
dinner for my friends.
We had a very nice day,
and I told my friends of
your wonderful gift. "
"By the way, there was 4
dollars missing. It was
no doubt those thieving
bastards at the post
office!!!!!!
