LAW OF CAUSE AND EFFECT Music: Butterfly Waltz Read by Sunny In order to succeed, we need to understand the law of cause and effect and the relationship between actions and results. For every effect, there is a cause. The law of cause and effect is the same as the law of sowing and reaping. The law of sowing and reaping says five things: 1. We must have the desire to sow. Desire is the starting point. 2. What we sow, so shall we reap. If we sow potatoes, we are only going to reap potatoes, not tomatoes. 3. We must sow before we reap. Sowing takes place before reaping; we must give before we get. We can not expect the fireplace to give us heat before we put in fuel. 4. When we sow a seed, we do not reap a fruit, our harvest is manifold. If we sow a positive seed our harvest will be manifold in the positive, and if we sow a negative one the harvest shall be manifold in the negative. 5. A farmer knows that we cannot sow and reap in the same day. There is always a period of gestation.
