On this date, September 14th, Margo was reading in the gospel of John 14:1--14 titled "Jesus the Way to the Father" and in Titus 1:6--16 titled "Requirements for Church Leadership".
Here's the underlined verse in John:
Jesus speaking: "1: Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me."
She also underlined the commentary on this passage:
"This is one of the most basic and important passages in Scripture. "How can I find God?" and answers, "Only through Jesus." Jesus is the Way because he is both God and man. By uniting our lives with his, we are united with God. Trust Jesus to take you to the father, and all the benefits of being God's child will be yours."
Margo also underlined these sentences in the commentary on the passage in Titus:
"Notice that most of the qualifications involve the elder's character, not his knowledge or skill...While it is important to have an elder or paster who can effectively preach God's Word, it is even more important to have one who can live out God's Word and be an example for others to follow."
