Hearing about in the being
Respected is much more better than
Being liked and you can be liked without
In the being respected but if you are respected
You can slowly and yet surely
All about in being liked with it.
It is about being not just with actions but
Those actions lined up with words.

JPPT1974's Mon Thoughts 4/21/2025:
When you are respected you
Can have such a chance in being liked
But when you are liked but not respected
The former will be only temporary than the
Latter and how when they lined up first with
Respect and later with liked how it is
Earned but not given on it.
Even if Jesus in doing things that seemed baffled to
Both friends and foes alike.
In particular the Pharisees and Romans
Who saw Him as a huge threat.

JPPT1974's Tues Thoughts 4/22/2025:
Earning respect is about action that becomes
Productive, accountable, and going the extra
Mile and how being liked without the respect
Can go away in a heartbeat and
Jesus earned both the respect and trust of the
Disciples despite the latter twelve disciples
Journeying with them for those three years in
Understanding and Jesus didn't expect them to
Really understand but also they see Jesus in so many ways.
As a teacher, a big brother, a father figure to the
Younger disciples, and one with love and patience.
Just to name a few along with the King of Kings
The Lord of Lords when He died and rose and ascended into heaven.

JPPT1974's Wed Thoughts 4/23/2025:
Jesus earned the respect of
People who saw Him perform miracles
But also sadly they may not
Had accepted Him as Savior and Lord
As they wanted the miracles and believing in that
Not believing in the miracle worker of all miracle workers.
Sadly it didn't lead to others accepting Him
Despite seeing Jesus as God in the flesh.

JPPT1974's Thurs Thoughts 4/24/2025:
Respect is something we earn
But people may not like
Us and that if you learn to respect
People and giving them a chance
Then you can like them as a person
Even if you may not agree with their
Methods or respect and how to
Earn respect and hopefully learning to
Like the person as well a human being.

JPPT1974's Weekend Thoughts 4/25-4/27/2025:
However if you want to be BOTH
Like and respected we need to
Consider on those over in
Viewpoint of others and in
Return that we need to hopefully
Have others see from our own viewpoint
Learn from others and give them the
Benefit of the doubt you would want for
Yourself in order to have both.

It is not at all
Through in words and
How we just talk the talk
But need in the walking the
Walk and in the actions that
Due speak louder than words
But keep in mind if you want to be
Liked them need to also be respected
In a way that will have others like you for
Who you are my friends.

As in the hoping to
Be in the matching our
Words with our actions
Just it is how we need to
Show we prove our matching our
Actions speaker louder than words
You may not like the person even
If you respect that person to
Be in the getting the job done.

JPPT1974's Mon Thoughts 4/28/2025:
Slowly yet surely when we
Do in the earning the respect
Over on others and that
It is up to others to be
Grateful and thank you and
Showing we do have our
Place over in the world
As Jesus made us and knew us
Before we were even born.

JPPT1974's Tues Thoughts 4/29/2025:
Christ is in the always
Matching His words and actions
Together due to being perfect and
Sinless and how that He took it
Over beyond the next level and
Plus He did the word and in the work of
God and to say He passed with flying
Colors would be an understatement.

Can we have both?
Yes as you can really
Mix your words and actions
Together as actions do speak
Louder than words and
How we need to how we can
Be the kind of Christians that
Christ wants us to be in respect and
In being likable and understanding
Transparent is how Jesus show
Us how to really be the acting the way
We need to be in the eyes of God.

Four months down over in
2025 And it seems that the
Year keeps on in the coming
Very fast and that it
Seems we can't have enough
In one day and how that
When we get older we feel like
Life is slipping over in away

120 Days down and many
More over to go but
It seems that every single

And that it seems that
The days in going by
Very fast keep on with life
Going on very fast on it.

Life is about in trying
To fit in a 24/7 world
How that we need to
Earn our place and find it
Due over in we may not feel
Like we have earned our place
But God knows what we need even
If He is withholding it over for
Us to learn and to lean on Him.

There is just it seems
Yet not enough time as
A saying that goes with the
Time waits for no man
Matter of fact it doesn't
You and I need to use the
Very short time we have on this
Earth to make it as really meaningful
So as much as possible.

How in the Lord wanting
Us to use the time we
Have and to make the

In the good and bad times
Days we have we need to
Really lean on the Lord for
Guidance and support over in using those days.

Life is all about in using
Our days to make the
Most of it as it was really
Doing the best to remember that
Wasting our days it is like
In waiting the life that
God has given us and that
We are giving only one life.
Just don't take it for granted.
