letter to God Letter to God
Little Leroy came into the kitchen where his mother was making
dinner.
His birthday was coming up, and he thought this was a good time
to tell
his
mother what he wanted. "Mom, I want a bike for my birthday."
Little Leroy was a bit of a trouble maker. He had gotten into
trouble at
school and at home. Leroy's mother asked him if he thought he
deserved
to get a bike for his birthday. Little Leroy, of course,
thought he did.
Leroy's mother, being a Christian woman, wanted Leroy to
reflect on his
behavior over the last year. "Go to your room, Leroy, and think
about
how you have behaved this year. Then write a letter to God and
tell him
why you deserve a bike for your birthday." Little Leroy stomped
up the
steps to his room and sat down to write God a letter.
Letter 1:
Dear God,
I have been a very good boy this year, and I would like a bike
for my
birthday. I want a red one.
Your friend,
Leroy
*********
Leroy knew that this wasn't true. He had not been a very good
boy this
year, so he tore up the letter and started over.
Letter 2:
Dear God,
I have been an "OK "boy this year. I still would really like a
bike for my
birthday.
Leroy
**********
Leroy knew he could not send this letter to God either. So he
wrote a t
hird
letter.
Letter 3:
God,
I know I haven't been a good boy this year. I am very sorry. I
will be a
good boy if you just send me a bike for my birthday. Please!
Thank you,
Leroy
Leroy knew, even if it were true, that this letter was not
going to get
him a bike. Now Leroy was very upset. He went downstairs and
told his
mom that he wanted to go to church. Leroy's mother thought her
plan had worked, as Leroy looked very sad. "Just be home in time
for
dinner," she told him.
Leroy walked down the street to the church on the corner.
Little Leroy
went into the church and up to the altar. He looked around to
see
if anyone was there. Leroy bent down and picked up a statue of
the
Virgin Mary. He slipped it under his shirt and ran out of the
church,
down the street, into the house, and up to his room. He shut
the
door to his room and sat down with a piece of paper and a pen.
Then Leroy wrote his letter to God.
Letter 4:
God,
I'VE GOT YOUR MAMA. IF YOU WANT TO SEE HER AGAIN, SEND THE
BIKE!
Signed,
YOU KNOW WHO!
