On this date, February 7th Margo was reading in the book of Matthew 15:1-20 titled "Righteousness of the Heart " and in Romans 12:14-21 titled "Conquer Evil With Good".

These are the verses Margo underlined in the passage in Romans, the apostle Paul writing;


"14:Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. 15:Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. 16:Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.

17:Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. 18:If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19:Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord. 20:On the contrary:
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head." 21:Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."

Margo's Bible Verses February 6th

On this date, February 6th Margo was reading in the book of Matthew 14:22-36 titled "Jesus Walks on the Water" and in Romans 12:6-13 titled "Gifts Are Given to Serve Others".

These are the verses Margo underlined in the passage in Romans, the apostle Paul writing;


"6:We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. 7:If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; 8:if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully.

9:Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. 10:Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. 11:Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. 12"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. 13:Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality."
