Publisher's Summary
When Mary Lou Quinlan’s beloved mother, Mary Finlayson, dies, her family is bereft - until Mary Lou searches for her mother’s "God Box", her private cache of notes to God on behalf of family, friends, and strangers. To Mary Lou’s amazement, she finds not one but 10 boxes stuffed with hundreds of tiny petitions that span the last 20 years of her mother’s life.
Note by note, Mary Lou unearths a treasure of her mother’s wishes and worries and insight. Mary asked God for everything from the right flooring for her daughter’s home to a cure for her own blood cancer. Her requests, penned on scraps of paper, were presented without expectation - the ultimate expression of letting go.
Follow Mary Lou’s emotional journey as she uncovers her mother’s innermost thoughts - nostalgic, surprising, and even shocking. As she recalls life with the woman who was her best friend, Mary Lou discovers her own more empathetic, engaged self - the woman her mother had believed in all along.
Poignantly narrated, The God Box is a gift for every mother, every daughter, every person who, regardless of beliefs, trusts in the permanence of love and the power of family.

Thank you!
I have tried for years to consistently keep a prayer list like my daddy’s. It’s my main regret for being a woman and not a man. Daddy always kept a very small pencil and a very small part spiral notebook in his left breast shirt pocket which of course women’s clothing doesn’t include. So I would lose my list or forget about it. I’m going to try The God box. Thank you for the inspiration not only to do it but the reason in terms of the practice of letting go. Thank you again, Joanna Morse, bereavement coordinator for Hospice

Beautiful!
Would you listen to The God Box again? Why?
I would to get inspired again to use the God Box I created after reading it the first time.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The God Box?
When she would find notes her mom wrote on scraps of paper such as receipts. Helps us to remember that we can find any moment to focus on God.

Story
Think back to when you were a kid and someone you loved gave you a little wink across the dining room table, like Mom or Dad or Grandma. You didn't say, “What do you mean by that?” You knew. It meant: “Hey kid, I'm proud of you.” That's what a Godwink is: a message of reassurance from above, directly to you, out of seven billion people on Earth, saying “Hey kid...I have you on my mind! I love you. You’re never alone.” A Godwink can be an unexpected connection to someone you love, a mysterious pathway to a life-changing opportunity, or unanticipated income out of the blue.

Even the crustiest old Alaskan sourpuss who died in a one-room cabin always had Halloween candy for the neighborhood kids, and the eccentric owner of the seafood store who regularly warned her about government conspiracies knew how to be a true friend - his memorial service was packed.
