The postmaster was a representative of God. Evaluate this statement in the
context of your understanding of ‘A Letter to God
Answers
Yes, the postmaster was a representative of God for at least three reasons. First, he was the one who actually read the letter, on behalf of God. Also, he made efforts to fulfill Lencho's prayers, which were addressed to God. So, the postmaster acted in God's place and tried to collect funds for the poor farmer. Thirdly, Lencho himself believed that God had answered his prayers and sent him the money.
Thus, since the postmaster was a fellow human being and not God, but his actions were very kind, it can be concluded that he was indeed a representative of God.
Answer:
In the story "A Letter to God' when Lencho needed money he had written a letter to god asking for 100 pesos. When the postmaster found out he laughed but eventually decided on helping Lencho. He, using his salary and borrowing little amounts of money from the other employees, collected 70 pesos and put them in an envelope addressing himself as God so that Lencho's faith in God was not broken. So, in this way the postmaster was a representative of god... His this deed also proves that humanity still exists because When Lencho was in trouble, the posmaster helped him without looking for anything in return.
