Sammy prayed every night for two weeks, asking God for $100.
When he got no response, he thought it would be a good idea to write to God and see if that worked.
The post office received the letter addressed to “God, Los Angeles.” They decided that it would be best to just forward the letter to the mayor. The mayor read the letter and thought it was cute, so he asked his secretary to send the boy $10, thinking the boy would think that was a lot of money for a little boy.
When Sammy got the money, he was so excited that he sat down immediately to write a thank-you letter.
“Dear God,” he wrote, “Thank you very much for the money you sent. I guess it is to be expected but I thought you should know this: When you sent it through City Hall, the government deducted $90.”
