Applying Natural Law

Natural laws surround us in our world and as we learn what they are through studying and personal experience, and strive to use them to our advantage, we will become much happier and successful in life. One such natural law is the Law of Restoration.  The basic gist of this law is that which we do will be restored unto us again.  So, when we are trustworthy, we invite trust into our lives and when we are dishonest, we invite dishonesty, it is that simple.  Because of this law, it is impossible to do evil and hope for sustained good in our lives.  The universe does not operate this way. 

Restoration means to bring back again—good for good, evil for evil, mercy for mercy, justice for justice, etc.  We will be restored to that which we do.  What we send out into the universe shall return to us again.  This is a universal law. 
Another way to describe this law is we will reap what we sow.  If a farmer plants carrots, he cannot expect to have corn at harvest time.  Likewise, when we sow good seeds, we can expect to eventually receive good things.  When we are dishonest, mean spirited, rude, etc., we can eventually expect the same in return.  We cannot plant apples and expect oranges.  We will partake of the fruit of our labors. 

Too often we hope to do one thing and receive something else in return.  Believing that we can get away from this law, that we are somehow above it, shows our lack of understanding of natural or universal laws. 
Now the Law of Restoration does not happen instantaneously.  In fact, many can be dishonest for example and find success but in the long run, the Law of Restoration will always come through.  Sometimes it takes weeks, sometimes months, and other times many years but the Law of Restoration will always manifest itself in our lives.  Do not be deceived into believing this law does not exist.  There are always consequences to our actions.       

The Law of Restoration is a powerful universal law that can and will help us tremendously in our life.  Because of it, we must recommit ourselves to proven principles and values including hard work, honesty, service to our fellow men, and kindness toward others for that which we do will be returned unto us again.
