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 to you.” Luke 6:38 NIV
I think some days this doesn't apply....especially when you have cats. You give them food, water, shelter, play toys, clean potties and love. What do you get in return? Cold stares that could wear down a rock. Yep, cats are aloof mythical creatures I will never understand. You will never get back what you put into loving a cat.
Now a dog is a different story. You can ignore them and they still come running. The more you love, the more they love.
But we aren't animals. We have eternal souls, the intent of which we are judged by. God sees our hearts. We can give a million dollars but if we give it to get attention or undue gain, then it's as though we didn't give it at all. God doesn't see the amount. He sees the intent of the heart.
Give with all you have and with a happy heart. For even farmers know you reap what you sow.
