 If it means something like reaping what you sow, then I do. The Bible says: "Don’t be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a person sows he will also reap..." (Galatians 6:7).

I was thinking the other day about how Jesus said "Just as you want others to do for you, do the same for them. ...Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given to you; a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over—will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.” (Luke 6:31, 37-38). 

Perhaps this could be taken as not just a recommendation but also a warning.
