The Bible states that we reap what we sow. The most fertile soil in
the world is barren unless seeds have been properly planted, cultivated,
and nurtured. The relationship between giving and getting is constant
in everything you do. To succeed in any endeavor, you must first invest a
generous portion of your time and talents if you expect ever to earn a
return on your investment. You have to give before you get. It’s all a
matter of attitude. You may occasionally be disappointed if you are not
rewarded for your efforts, but if you demand payment for your services
before you render them, you can expect a lifetime of disappointment and
frustration. If you cheerfully do your best before asking for any
compensation, you can expect a bountiful harvest of the greatest rewards
life has to offer.
