The saying "what we sow is what we reap" means that our actions have consequences, and we will experience the results of our choices and behaviors. This principle is common throughout the Bible, and it is a natural law of sowing and reaping. The idiom "you reap what you sow" is mostly likely directly referencing one of two verses in the New Testament. One is 2 Corinthians 9:6, "Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously." The other is Galatians 6:7, "Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows".

This principle applies to all areas of life, including our thoughts, deeds, and words. If we plant good seeds, we can expect to reap good rewards later, and if we plant bad seeds, we can expect to reap negative consequences. For example, if we sow to please our sinful nature, we will reap destruction, but if we sow to please the Spirit, we will reap eternal life.

Therefore, it is important to be mindful of our actions and choices, and to make decisions that align with our values and goals. If we dont like what were reaping, we can change what were sowing. We should not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time, we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
