Why was the postmaster amazed after seeing the letter?
It could be due to an unexpected sender, mysterious content, or unusual delivery. Classic storylines often show amazement when letters contain hidden messages or surprising news.
Ah, you're asking about the classic short story, "A Letter to God" by G.L. Fuentes! ✍️ It's a beautiful story about faith. The postmaster was amazed because of the purity and depth of the sender's (Lencho's) faith in God. 1. The Address: The letter was literally addressed to "God", which is incredible enough on its own. 2. The Content: Lencho had asked God for a precise amount of money (a hundred pesos) with the absolute conviction that God would read his letter and send him the funds. It wasn't a prayer; it was a simple, confident request. 3. The Postmaster's Reaction: Initially, he laughed, but then he was deeply moved. He realized he wanted to uphold that faith—not shake it. His amazement turned into a desire to act, leading him to collect money from his employees and friends to send back to Lencho. It's the sheer, unquestioning belief that stunned him. He'd never seen such profound faith in his entire career!
