If we need to show humility
It's like letting one person
Getting in front of us in the
Line over at the grocery store
In particular that over in an
Senior citizen or in a mother with
Kids and in the limited patience to
Wanting to get out of the store.

JPPT1974's Mon Thoughts 7/21/2025:
God sent Jesus to show
Us all in mankind to have
Humility and in the not
Bragging about what we can
Really do but to do on so as
Meekly and without bragging about
It as humility is very much lacked in this world.

JPPT1974's Tues Thoughts 7/22/2025:
If we show others about
Our humility in particular on
Those who are not believers that
Want what we want in
Jesus and how He showed humility
Not bragging or grandstanding but
In taking the form of God's Son and the
Servant of all servants here.

You are so consistent in your devotions JP! That is good. Keep doing it.

For my devotions, rather then trying to hit what we covered in AM, Sunday School, & PM services, plus my own devotional, what I was doing in the past, I'm choosing to focus on just one all week & work on that one all week

JPPT1974's Wed Thoughts 7/23/2025
People that were showing that
In being humbled and in really
Not thinking that they are better than
Others due to the fact of in
Being wealthy or are in the having on
Many much more resources and
Sadly they may change due to these or
Growing up in a well to do family.

Humility is in very much a
Badge of honor and not at
All in being shown as weak and
Meek and that it is being meek in the
Earthly world not in the eternal world
If meek and humility can be the
Same sentence all together in the Biblical sense
You see in sharing and showing love.

JPPT1974's Weekend Thoughts 7/25-7/27/2025
Humility is where we are not
Better than others and
It shows how that we are
Deferring our own importance to
God and that God needs to
Be shined on and not
Ourselves when we bow down before
Him and will one day when we leave this
Earth over for eternity and in heaven.

When we have humility over
In us being humbled and
Putting others first and first and
Foremost over in Christ Jesus in
Our hearts, minds, and souls then
We must decrease in order for
Jesus to increase in John 3:30
Expecting of all believers in Him.

Humility is about showing we
Need to humble ourselves and
Really need to show others the
Love that God has given to us
Who have believed and repented
Zeroing in on giving everything to
God showing His grace and mercy
Despite not deserving it by any and all
Means due to us being sinners.

JPPT1974's Mon Thoughts 7/28/2025:
Sadly our world is not
Like that and how that
It is about getting to be the
First in line and in the first
Over in getting this or that or
A really great table at a restaurant
But when we defer to others who may not be as
Lucky as we are showing humility.

JPPT1974's Tues Thoughts 7/29/2025
In putting others ahead as
Jesus would do that and how
Christ came to serve and not
Be served as there is a difference
Both are not the same thing
We need to do so in an usually a
Quiet way and make someone's day then
Move on to the next thing.
