Question

Why does the postmaster wish to have the type of faith Lencho had in God?
First Flight Chapter 1 A Letter to God

Answer 1

Answer:

The postmaster in the story is a kind man. He is very impressed by Lencho’s faith in God. He doesn’t want to shake his faith. So, he collects money from various sources and sends it to Lencho. He signs the letter “God” because he wants to keep Lencho's faith in God intact.

Answer 2

The post master was astonished seeing Lencho's deep faith in God. So, in order not to shake Lencho's faith in God, he sends a little over half the amount (precisely 70 pesos) of money Lencho asked for. The postmaser signed it in the name of God to make Lencho believe that God answered to his prayers and to protect his faith in God.
