Karma: Reaping or Sowing?

I learned not to judge rich or poor from many lessons I was taught during my life. We are all on different karmic paths: reaping or sowing. Sometimes it's more balanced and it's barely noticeable or can be seen instantaneously. Sometimes it's not, and we may see sowing more and reaping less or vice versa.
 
Do we see what our Creator sees?
 
After all, do we know the past life of any person who is rich? Did they suffer and were granted a more blessed existence because of it? How much did this person devote to others to be allowed this current life? Is one, that is rich, still helping others in whatever capacity they can? Just because it's not what we feel is right for us, is it our place to judge without knowing their path before they returned to earth or what they're to do during this lifetime?
 
Do we feel what our Creator feels?
 
Besides, if a person is choosing to not help others, is it due to hurt feelings, within the soul, of not being helped from others in their past? Do we know what we did to them, to have these feelings? Probably not, but we still judge them for teaching us a lesson?
Do we know what our Creator knows?
 
We also see impoverished people and lament. Our compassion wants to save them. However, do we know why they may be in this life? Could it be our cry for justice ... for karma ... that may have placed them in this situation? Are they also reaping what they sowed? Were our prayers answered with things like, I hope karma gets them or karma bites?
 
Do we understand what our Creator understands?
 
We see illness and death of all ages. We question the reasons but, again, could they be in a karmic cause and effect? Were our collective thoughts the karmic culprits? It's things to consider when we judge another or others. What flow are we creating? What flow did they create? Because, rich, poor or in the middle, that's the reaping and sowing of karma for the soul ... with the body being the instrument for doing so.
