A woman at the Post Office handled mail with illegible addresses. One day, she found a letter to God with no address and decided to open it. It read:

“Dear God,
I’m an 85-year-old widow living on a small pension. Someone stole my purse with $120, all I had until my next check. Next Sunday is Christmas, and I invited my friends for dinner. Without that money, I can’t buy food. You’re my only hope. Please help me.
Sincerely, Martha.”

Moved by the letter, the woman couldn’t get Martha’s words out of her mind. She decided to share it with her coworkers. As she read the letter aloud, everyone grew quiet. One by one, they started pulling out their wallets.

“I can pitch in $5,” said one. “Here’s $10,” added another. Bit by bit, they pooled their money until they had $116—almost the full amount Martha needed.

They placed the money in an envelope and sent it anonymously to her address. For the rest of the day, they couldn’t help but smile, imagining Martha’s surprise and the joy she’d feel knowing someone cared. It was the kind of warmth that reminded them what Christmas was all about.

After Christmas, another letter from Martha arrived. Curious, the workers gathered to read it:

“Dear God,
Thank you for your kindness. Because of your gift of love, I had a wonderful dinner with my friends.
