Sometimes God does get revenge on behalf of His children. Sometimes God does bless those who have sown righteousness and He does curse those who have sown wickedness. Once again karma is not biblical but reaping and sowing is. Galatians Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary. So then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith.
James But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace. Hosea For they sow the wind And they reap the whirlwind. The standing grain has no heads; It yields no grain.
Should it yield, strangers would swallow it up. Proverbs The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him : but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it. He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him. Matthew so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven.
For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. Scripture says that we will all die once and then we will be judged. This clearly does not support karma and reincarnation.
You get one chance and one chance only. After you die, you are either going to go to Hell or you are going to go to Heaven. Hebrews Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment. Constructs arise with our earliest memories, and we continue to replay, reinforce and collect them throughout our lives.
Think of a silo, and each thought or action you have in your life is a kernel of corn. These stored memories, thoughts and actions germinate, and become the ripening or results of our karma, our actions. None possess an inherent, inborn nature. Unhappiness can come when we hold too fast to some of these assignations, particularly ones that that are resentful or traumatic. Research on construct activation has shown that people can be primed to perceive things in a certain way.
In one seminal study, Edwards says, participants read a description of a man engaged in a number of ambiguous behaviors, like going to a store and asking for money back.

The "hardest" experience of my life was having to decide between going to Harvard, Princeton, or taking a full-ride to Duke. I mean, come on. There were so many good times in my life, I was bound to step into some bad times. The world had only taught me how to laugh, but it knew it had to eventually teach me how to cry too.
I'm now learning that it takes much more than good genes, good luck, and a couple of "good" all-nighters to achieve your dreams. It takes an insatiable drive, to do something more for yourself, an obsessive determination, to never settle for anything less than true happiness, and a Rafa Nadal type tenacity, to push through even the darkest times. I've slowly come to accept the fact that this hasn't been a punishment for a past crime, or even a curse for easing my way through life.
But, by being so happy, I just had a lot farther to fall, when it came time to just, balance things out. What goes up, must come down.

This friend was lucky enough to receive financial aid from an anonymous donor. Once she graduated and became more financially stable, she began to make frequent donations to the same scholarship fund.

This karma then compromises your past and future actions and is responsible for the situations you may find yourself in.
