Juanito, a pure child full of curiosity, always longed to know God, always looked for Him in many places and never found Him, but his search had an unexpected and very dear end for him. He decided to write a letter to God.

God since I was born I have always wanted to know who you are, what form you have, if you are a man, a woman, if you really get angry with us, if you are like my grandmother told me you are when one does not pay attention.

However when I ask that to an adult he tells me that you are in church and I go to church and they only tell me to pray a lot and to study what the bible says, then I go and ask another adult and he tells me that if I want to know how you are I must always behave well, and I behave well. Then I go and ask again to another adult and he tells me to be silent and just imagine that I am talking to you, to always imagine that you are with me and that I will only find you... in my imagination'.

But dear God, ever since I knew that there was a God who loves me and takes care of me, I have always wanted to see you and thank you for all the good things you give me, for the family I have, for my little dog Bruno and for my grandmother Cristina who is always taking care of me'.

A few days later, his grandmother Cristina, while cleaning the house, found the letter and read it and was so moved that she began to cry when she saw the pure search of her grandson Juan...

And she answered the letter saying:

'Juanito of my heart, you are the most precious good, you are the reason and the reason for my dawns. for you I work, for you I sacrifice myself, for you I have stayed up all night and cried.... If you want to find me, feel me in every kiss, in every hug, in every God take care of you that I give you in the morning.... With this I am telling you who I am and where I am. I love you for eternity'.

When Juanito read the letter, he was silent and began to cry, realizing that God was in his mother and grandmother.

Thank you for reading me

We often forget God is with us always.

Sometimes writing a letter to God just like we write formal and informal letters in school, helps us to pour our heart out to Him. I was moved one certain time and I wrote one to God. I felt different from the usual prayers I do just like Juan. Maybe because it was my first time.

I can definitely relate with Juan's letter
God is always with us.

@iskawrites hola amiga, gracias por comentar. Asi mismo es, los niños desde su pureza conectan con Dios, y al crecer nos damos cuenta que el está en todas partes.
