The Templeton Prize for 2013 that was awarded to the Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu this week is proof - if ever one was needed - that we can get rewarded for our good deeds while still here on earth. The reward of going to heaven because of our good work on earth will be an added bonus.
This prize to 'the Arch' - worth $1.7 million(R15 million) - was awarded by the Templeton Foundation, and is said to be for him doing much to spread love and forgiveness in his life time.
The religious/charity/social work field may not be that attractive to a lot of people, because it often looks like here one puts the welfare of others before one's own. But this recognition of Tutu's work shows that it can be a worthwhile field.
"Thanks for the inspiration, Arch."
