“So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is
enough for today.

7:1
“Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. 2For you will be treated as you treat others. The
standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged.
3
“And why worry about a speck in your friend’s eye when you have a log in your own? 4How can
you think of saying to your friend, ‘Let me help you get rid of that speck in your eye,’ when you can’t
see past the log in your own eye? 5Hypocrite! First get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see
well enough to deal with the speck in your friend’s eye.
6
“Don’t waste what is holy on people who are unholy. Don’t throw your pearls to pigs! They will
trample the pearls, then turn and attack you.
7
“Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep
on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who
seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.

“You parents—if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone instead? 10Or if
they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not! 11So if you sinful people know how to
give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those
who ask him.
12
“Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you. This is the essence of all that is taught
in the law and the prophets.
13
“You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its
gate is wide for the many who choose that way. 14But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road
is difficult, and only a few ever find it.”

You are on the right road—the road to life! You have made a fresh start, a new beginning. It’s not easy, but by God’s grace, you’re doing it. And if you keep your eyes open,
you’ll see that he is providing for you moment by moment, step by step, all along the
way. He knows what you need even before you do, and he is eager and willing—even
waiting—to help you. So just ask him! Don’t give up. You can do the hard things because your Father is with you and for you.

“Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves. 16You
can identify them by their fruit, that is, by the way they act. Can you pick grapes from thornbushes, or
figs from thistles? 17A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit. 18A good tree
can’t produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can’t produce good fruit. 19So every tree that does not produce
good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire. 20Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit,
so you can identify people by their actions.
