I believe there is a big bank account in the sky. Every time you do something good, especially for others, you make a deposit. Every time you do something bad, you make a withdrawal.
In either case, it doesn’t matter if anyone is watching. It all counts.
So, when nobody is looking, I sometimes do something good that nobody knows about except me. Will it buy me some protection or goodwill or luck another time or when I need it?
In my experience – yes.
How about you?
I believe in that so strongly. Good and bad karma. Keeping track is important.
I have helped many and been also helped by many. I believe strongly in that theory and although you are not looking for that when you do good time always brings it out and tells you later. Larry feelings are so very true.
Thank you Larry for this.
Angels are all around us, we are surrounded. When we need them the most they show up. They show up in different forms and they guide us. They hide and operate through every day people. Yes. Your heard me right. They tend to provide what we need instead of what we want. Their job is to help us stay on track and complete transforming individual journeys. But please do not let them fool you that they are special or magical. They are not. They are every day folks who fight daily with themselves. Through good or bad in one way or another they help us. Please reflect and identify events or people who helped you in an unconventional or conventional manner. Tell them in person, with written words, or a silent prayer how much they mean and how they helped you to get unstuck. They will hear, feel and know what lives in the depth of your hearts. A precious child. A child of love. Keep going, and thank you for fighting to build a better future.
I believe this to be true..
Excellent point. Building goodwill as a leader is invaluable.
I believe it 100% I was there at the right time and made a difference.
Hello Larry,
Thoroughly enjoy your daily insights! Regarding the idea of a “bank account in the sky” and “buying protection” by doing good deeds, I’m just curious what you base that upon?
Ps – really enjoyed the Baja series. Incredible effort!
I agree 100% Larry. There’s something special about giving and receiving a random act of kindness in an unkind world.
Hi Larry!
I believe the same thing. As the Bible tells us, “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me” (Matthew 25:40, 45, NIV)
Whatever you may believe, helping others keeps the cycle revolving because there’s going to come a time in all of our lives that we’re going to need some sort of help at some point.
