So here is my blog story - thank you for reading it.
I have not written this blog. This story was sent to me and it has touched
me so deeply that I wanted to share it with all of you. Blessed be the
person who acted as an Angel. Who had such a big heart, was so
compassionate and cared for the feelings of Meredith, a 4 year old, who
lossed her precious pet.
Lets take this story as an example that if we all care a bit more for each
other we would make a better world and God would be able to smile more
often down on us. Despite the fact that his love is unconditional we need
to learn to spread it more and be there for each other.
God is everywhere - he is watching over us and sends us his Messengers to
show us his love and care. Enjoy this beautiful story.
There is a God in the Post Office.
This is one of the kindest things I've ever experienced I have no way to know who sent it, but there is a beautiful soul working in the dead letter office of the
US 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
