Summary of lesson number 1 in First Flight of class 10 A letter to god

Answer 1

Answer:

The story, "A Letter to God" by G.L. Fuentes depicts unwavering faith of a farmer in God. It begins with a farmer, named Lencho expecting for a rain shower to nourish his field of corn. He is confident that his harvest is going to yield him huge profits just like it does every year. To his utmost excitement, rainfall did happen but sooner, it turned into a hailstorm destroying his entire crop field. The damage posed a threat to the family's survival as their entire livelihood was dependent on the year's produce. Although disheartened, the family had robust belief in the almighty. Lencho , despite having worked day and night at the field, knew how to write and thus, decided to write a letter to God explaining his situation and asking for help. He went to town to post his letter addressed "To God". The letter on being noticed by the postmaster, at first amused him, but then motivated him want to do something for the farmer so as to keep his immense belief intact.  He contributes from his salary and collects money from his colleagues and friends who willingly contributed for an act of charity. To his dismay, he could only collect 70 pesos which he wrapped in an envelope to make it seem like a reply from the deity. On having found the letter, the writer (Lencho) is not at all shocked, but instead, he gets angry on finding that the amount is less than what he had expected. He again writes a letter to God conveying his disappointment and distrust in the employees of the post office who he thought had stolen the remaining amount.

The chapter starts when Lencho, a  poor farmer was waiting for some rain for his crops to grow it properly. His wife, at home prepares food and calls all the children and her husband for the food. Lencho tells her that it is about to rain soon.

The rain starts. He becomes happy at first every drop of the rain pleases him to the bottom of his heart.His children start enjoying the drops of water. All of sudden small drops of the rain change into large drops. Large hailstones start falling and change into hailstorm. That heavy rain and hailstorm destroy all the crops of Lencho.

 Now Lencho has nothing to servive his family whole year. That night makes him upset.Now he is not understanding what to do? Then he decides to write a letter to god to demand him help for him and his family.He sends the letter, having written "TO GOD" as address.

The letter is recieved by a postman ,he takes it to the postmaster.The Postmaster laughs out loudly to see the letter but soon becomes serious and wants to help Lencho because he doesn't want to shake Lencho's faith in god. He and his collegues collect 70 pesos in all and send them to Lencho a letter, signed as God.

Lencho gets the letter and opens it. When he counts the money he becomes angry because he gets only 70 pesos in it but he has demanded for 100 pesos. He is sure god cannot commit such mistake.He doubts on the postmaster and his collegues for stealing his money.

He writes one more letter to god and requests god to send him help directly in future. He calls, the postmaster and his collegues, "bunch of crooks". The postmaster doesn't feel happy to read it.
