In today's reading we will cover Matthew Chapters 6:22-34 and 7:1-29 and Luke Chapter 6:37-49.

Today's reading will teach us about not worrying about what we need in life because God knows what we need. We need to seek God's kingdom first and God will make sure we have everything we need! We will also learn about the importance of following the right leaders. We should not follow those who are spiritually blind or are false prophets. We can see who is okay to follow by looking at their fruit. While we are learning how to be like Jesus we need to remember that we will never be greater than He is, but when we learn everything we will be like Jesus. We need to be careful when correcting others, because it may be that we ourselves are guilty of committing the same sin and have a "beam" in our own eye while we try to remove the "speck of dust" from someone else's eye. God has good gifts ready for us. We need only to ask for them! Jesus reminded us today that treating others the way we want them to treat us is the whole message of the Law and the prophets! Wow, sounds easy, doesn't it? Just love one another!

Most importantly, for our daily application today, Jesus taught us that it is not enough to simply say that we believe that He is the Messiah and call Him Lord. We must do what God wants. We must obey Jesus and His teachings, which is what we call being His disciple (student.) If we do not do what God wants or what Jesus teaches us then when we meet Him He will tell us that He never knew us because we were doing wrong things and not what He taught us.
