What Goes Around Comes Around

When most people think of the phrase, "What Goes Around Comes Around," usually the term "Karma" comes to mind. Most people think of Karma as the natural law that presents itself in the form of justice to those who have either done good or bad in the World.

I firmly believe that Karma is really God's law doing its job. Many people wonder if whether or not God punishes those who have sinned against him, and since sinning against any human being is sinning against God, we all sin against God by doing harm to others.

In my opinion, God doesn't punish people. Simply because God has designed a law that is self-sufficient and self-sustaining. I believe that no good or bad deed goes un-punished or un-rewarded--not by God, but by the law itself. God's law is so efficient, he doesn't have to administer it, it works for itself. So everything we do comes back to us in one way or another. The law works naturally so that we all get back what we do whether positive or negative.

I'm not saying that God doesn't intentionally cause things to happen--I feel that He has a hand in everything and any time He wants to step in to do something, He certainly does. What I'm saying is that His law is sufficient in the way that he doesn't have to punish us, we punish ourselves with His natural law of justice.
