On this date, December 1st Margo was reading in the book of Acts 28:1--10 titled "On the Island of Malta" and in I Peter 4:7--11 titled "Use Your Gifts for Service".
Margo didn't underline any of the verses in the passage in Acts. However, she underlined the following verses in the passage in I Peter, the apostle Peter speaking:
"7:The end of all things is near. Therefore be clear minded and self-controlled so that you can pray. 8:Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins."
Here's what she underlined in the commentary on I Peter:
"...Others feel they have no special talents at all...Peter says, everyone has some abilities; find yours and use them. All our abilities should be dedicated to others, he points out; none are for our own exclusive enjoyment. We must use the gifts which God has given to us to serve others."
