I understand what you mean, but it may be best not to mix your religions in order to make your point.
"We reap what we sow" comes from a belief system in which your wrongs will be punished in the afterlife.
Karma in the traditional sense means you pay for it in a subsequent, material life.
Karma in the western sense ("you get what you give") isn't necessarily "instant" (and perhaps "instant" was poor choice of terms if taken literally), but often refers to the evils revisited in the span of the same life.
I find afterlives and reincarnations questionable, and those that do wrong in this life don't always feel it. Indeed, there are some who prosper from wickedness and die comfortably.
Don't get me wrong, the premises of karma and reaping what you sow are wonderful tools for guiding people along a moral path -- both offer a complete carrot-and-stick approach in their philosophy, but that doesn't make them true.
Anyway, back on topic:
I believe that when one questions oneself, the question has already provided the answer. Your subconscious, your instinct, whatever you want to call it, is often more accurate than conscious thought in decision-making, and doubt often first emerges as a simple question from instinct. I believe, therefore, it is more often best to follow in the direction of that doubt than to ignore it.
