On this date Margo didn't underline any verses,
however she underlined a sentence in the commentary
section of her one year devotional bible.
Let me give you the context first... ref: Galatians
2:11-16
The apostle Paul, the apostle Peter, and some other
Jewish Christians, and a group of Gentile Christians
gathered together in Antioch to share a meal.
Peter refused to eat with the Gentile Christians as
did the other Jewish Christians (except Paul),
because it was "unlawful" for them to eat with
gentiles, according to Jewish law.
This implied that Christ's sacrifice was not
sufficient for salvation.
The apostle Paul called the apostle Peter "out on the
carpet" publicly because he was being hypocritical.
Peter had been living and eating with the Gentiles for
some time. He may not have wanted to offend his
Jewish brothers by eating with the Gentiles.
Here's the underlined sentence in the commentary:
"Compromise is an important element in getting along
with others, but we should never compromise the truth
of God's Word."
On this date last year, Margo was having a hard time
recovering from the last chemo treatment she received
in Denver. Getting ready for the meeting with Dr
Arenson on the 25th, and prep to start a new drug.
No more pain for my dear, wonderful Margo.
I do miss her so.
God is good.
