I'm not at all sure I believe in God. But I like to think that karma exists, and that all of the wrongs others have dealt me will be paid for at some later time. I'll probably never see it, but it is some comfort to think that people who do bad things will eventually be called on and stymied or punished in some way. It may not be for what they've done to me, but the cumulative effects of what they've done to many.
Even if karma doesn't even exist, there is the law of averages. I think people can only get away with doing bad things for so long... And when they get their comeuppance, it may not be what I expected or wanted, but with time I see that the punishment usually fits the crime better than anything I could have imagined.
