This is one of the kindest things you may ever see.  It is not known who replied, but there is a beautiful person/soul person working in the dead letter office of the U.S. postal service.
 
 
 
Our 14 year old dog, Abbey, died last month. The day after she died, my 4 year old daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed Abbey. She asked if we could write a letter to God so that when Abbey got to heaven, God would recognize her. I told her that I thought we could so she dictated these words:
 
Dear God,
Will you please take care of my dog? She died yesterday and is with you in heaven. I miss her very much. I am happy that you let me have her as my dog even though she got sick.
I hope you will play with her. She likes to play with balls and to swim. I am sending a picture of her so when you see her You will know that she is my dog. I really miss her.
Love, Meredith

We put the letter in an envelope with a picture of Abbey and Meredith and addressed it to God/Heaven. We put our return address on it. Then Meredith pasted several stamps on the front of the envelope because she said it would take lots of stamps to get the letter all the way to heaven. That afternoon she dropped it into the letter box at the post office. A few days later, she asked if God had gotten the letter yet. I told her that I thought He had.

Yesterday, there was a package wrapped in gold paper on our front porch addressed, 'To Meredith' in an unfamiliar hand. Meredith opened it. Inside was a book by Mr. Rogers called, 'When a Pet Dies.' Taped to the inside front cover was the letter we had written to God in its opened envelope. On the opposite page was the picture of Abbey & Meredith and this note:
 
Dear Meredith,
Abbey arrived safely in heaven.
Having the picture was a big help. I recognized Abbey right away.
Abbey isn't sick anymore. Her spirit is here with me just like it stays in your heart. Abbey loved being your dog. Since we don't need our bodies in heaven, I don't have any pockets to keep your picture in, so I am sending it back to you in this little book for you to keep and have something to remember Abbey by..
 
Thank you for the beautiful letter and thank your mother for helping you write it and sending it to me. What a wonderful mother you have. I picked her especially for you.
I send my blessings every day and remember that I love you very much.
By the way, I'm easy to find, I am wherever there is love.
 
Love,
God

郵局老闆老想私有化,因為他們可以得到到更多的收入,輿論鋪墊是先將郵票價格一加再加.可下面的職員在抵制私有化,因為實際私有化對他們有害無益

我想郵政服務一定不會關門的。象這種情況,完全是出於人的愛心。

如果真關門,可以直接打電話給天父啊:通過禱告:)

但是實際問題也是:現在用internet的人越來越多,普通郵寄信件就少,而網路購物等一般都選擇DHL或.Fedex....你看平時信筒里的廣告量大於有用的信件...所以,這估計也是郵局減少收入原因之一...

感動!
不過,美國郵政是真的面臨巨大困境,很可能在不久的將來關門。
好在愛心不一定只在郵局。

是啊,一顆愛心在平凡的事上都可以顯現出來。生命也因為愛而有意義。

是啊,愛心不一定在郵局。但我真不知道美國郵政面臨這樣的困境。可以加郵資啊。
