Topics of Matthew 10 are:
-Jesus sends his youngers out to pray his words
-Jesus tells us to be careful in this world
-Jesus is always there for us. We don`t have to be afraid.
-We must love Jesus with our whole heart and love him more than everything else
-If we accept people who needs help ,Jesus will accept us and recompense us for doing this
My favorite quotations:
Matthew 10, 16 :
Siehe ich sende euch wie Schafe mitten unter die Wölfe. Darum seid klug wie die Schlangen und ohne Falsch wie die Tauben.
We live in a dangerous world. But if we trust in Jesus and ask him to give us wisdom he will certainly give us that what we need. One should be careful and not trust everyone. Peolple who assumes to be your friend can also be your enemy. The only one who is really your friend forever is Jesus. That`s why you always can lean on him.
Matthew 10, 32-33:
Wer nun mich bekennt vor den Menschen, den will ich auch bekennen vor meinem himlischen Vater.
Wer aber mich verleugnet vor den Menschen, den will ich auch verleugnen vor meinem himmlischen Vater.
Don´t deny that you know Jesus, because he doesn`t deny that he knows everyone of us. Don`t be shy Jesus wasn`t shy when he is brought to court. He says everything what God tells him to say. He doesn`t try to save his life. We should do the same like Jesus giving our life to God(although it is very difficult to do this one should try to do it and keep it in mind) because:
Matthew 10, 39:
Wer sein leben findet, der wird`s verlieren; und wer sein leben verliert um meinetwillen, der wird`s finden.
Matthew 10, 40:
Wer euch aufnimmt, der nimmt mich auf und wer mich aufnimmt, der nimmt den auf, der mich gesandt hat.
This verse doesn`t only say that we should accept strangers in our house. It also tells us to accept every kind of people, be their friends and don`t have prejudices.

it is indeed difficult when we face what we can see knowing there is God who we cannot see to make the right choice with what we can see before us. may the Lord help us in those weak moments when we are tempted not to choose Him first.
