People do not give
Credit where credit is due
When good comes along;
They accredit "luck"
Or they thank their "good karma"
Or even "fortune".
When it is really
God, who causes it to rain
On the just--and not.

That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven; for He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. ~ Matthew5:45

Unfortunately, i do not believe in god. So i do credit good karma for the good in my life, as i do so much good for others, that i believe it comes from that.
