What measure ye mete

I just learned that the judgments we use to judge others are not only the judgments they will use tonight us, but also and more importantly the judgments God will use to judge us! 

D&C 1:10 Unto the day when the Lord shall come to recompense unto every man according to his work, and measure to every man according to the measure which he has measured to his fellow man.

Think of King Noah and Mordecai. And 1 Nephi 14:3. Wow. It's pretty literal.

Pay attention to the second verse below. Guard other's names as I would my own.

Karma really is a gospel principle, the idea that what you send out returns to you. Alma 41:14-15 says:
"14 Therefore, my son, see that you are merciful unto your brethren; deal justly, judge righteously, and do good continually; and if ye do all these things then shall ye receive your reward; yea, ye shall have mercy restored unto you again; ye shall have justice restored unto you again; ye shall have a righteous judgment restored unto you again; and ye shall have good rewarded unto you again.

15 For that which ye do send out shall return unto you again, and be restored; therefore, the word restoration more fully condemneth the sinner, and justifieth him not at all."

This is a good scripture to ponderizing.
