JPPT1974's Daily Devotions

JPPT1974's Thurs Thoughts 3/6/2025:
But family should be
About in love and in
Care and in the accepting
People for who they are
Sadly that they are in status
Richness and that it should
Never be about status but about
Love and sadly family over in status
Doesn't look over at those who are beyond them and
Their level no matter how many times we try to please them.
It seems nothing at all is ever good for them.
Really so sad and horrific in not accepting people
Just the way they are in the old Billy Joel song of the same name.

Take care JPPT. God says our real family is the family he adopts us into. Families desiring status is a remnant of how people are seeking self-righteousness. The Bible says the Lord has made us righteous b/c of what he's already done on the Cross.

Nevertheless, our blood families are super important, & Satan loves to attack it There are many ways he does this & he's very good at it in addition to them desiring status: the man doesn't want to lead or provide or neglects the children, the woman brings the man away from God, the children ruling the parents. He designed it to be God -> Father -> Mother -> Child. This isn't me making it up or following what conservative culture of the 80's said or whatever, this is Genesis, & a common theme thruout the Bible, & Paul iterates it in the NT. ) Often times it's Children -> Mother w/ the father out of the picture & God seemingly out of it. & now he's adding a 2nd in a fake imitation of what it s/b. But the Lord IS still in it & so while Satan is good at messing it up, he can't interfere w/ the Lord's plans for his people.

JPPT1974's Weekend Thoughts 3/7-3/9/2025:
People that care about
Status and don't seem to
Care about in the getting to
Know others as a person
Just they are blinded by status
Rather than love and how
People need to not look at status
It is about love and care.

 

[JPPT1974]

But that family doesn't
Have to be by blood
It can be by the family
You chose from rather than a
Bond of blood and how
Jesus wants us to know about
Family and love and to
Care and share for others
Rather than by status.

 

[JPPT1974]

People who have gone
By status really get blinded
How that by status they
Can lose everything and everybody
They loved or thought they love
By it and how that everything and
Everybody one by one departs them
Just remember family is by love
Not by status on it.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Mon Thoughts 3/10/2025:
Family is not united by
Blood always and for
Those who are with blood
Who are not by love and
Look over at status sadly they are
Missing out and that how love is
United by only love and care not status
And not even blood my friends.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Tues Thoughts 3/11/2025:
Understanding that when people
Bond by love and overlook by blood
Doing so by love and kindness
Zeroing in on bonding and
United in love and care
Family should be about those
Latter two things love, care, and sharing.
Not by status or even blood who only
Care about status sadly.

JPPT1974's Wed Thoughts 3/12/2025:
My father has Parkinson's Disease.
It is really so tragic and
Sad to see him being such a
Vibrant man to know having to
Go from using a cane to a walker
Now in a wheelchair that he is trying to get
Used to as this is his new normal now.
His wife of fifty-six years and myself
Live with him and help him.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Thurs Thoughts 3/13/2025:
New normal that is the
Understatement and in the affecting
Not just him but by myself and
Really most of all, that of my mom
As that he was in the US Air Force
It may had to do with Agent Orange that
In the affecting on those who were in the
Military not just in those who didn't see
Combat like my dad didn't but it had a tremendous
Effect on him and others like him.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Weekend Thoughts 3/14-3/16/2025:
How that now he
Is going to be going
From in the having on a
Cane to walk in to a
Walker and now that he
Is going in a wheelchair and
We are looking for in an electric wheelchair
On it as it will help him in
Making him be much more
Easier to be in an electric wheelchair.

 

[JPPT1974]

He was in learning about
His Parkinson's Disease diagnosis five
Years as he began to notice
Some symptoms and that
Due to being a man and
Mom and I being women as
We have to both hold him
In trying to when he was walking with a cane
Due to his falling down.

 

[JPPT1974]

But that is again the
New normal and that with
Him in having on either a
Cane or a walker that
In the falling all over and
That there were very
Kind strangers on it that when
He fell as mom can't at all
Do it on her own like I can't
But it is our new normal.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's St Patrick's Day 2025:
He was going through therapy
But that it has been paused
Due to insurance and due over
For in the not feeling really well
Just that when he went from the
Cane/wheelchair he hasn't really
Fell as opposite just a couple of
Times that he has fallen due to
Parkinson's as he feels bad.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Tues Thoughts 3/18/2025:
He feels bad that
Now he can't really
Do anything and that
Really he can't walk on his
Own due to that fact but
It is our new normal and
Also he loves to drive but
Really with his diagnosis on it
Can't ever drive anymore!

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Wed Thoughts 3/19/2025:
God doesn't want His children to
Hurt but that He just
Knows that our father would
Be diagnosed over in the
Parkinson's as nothing ever
Catches him off guard and
Knowing that we will have to
Watch over him around the clock
But all he does is nothing but sleep.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Thurs Thoughts 3/20/2025
But that is life
And that even though
It is very hard to see our
Father like this but that
He has in the providing for the family the
Breadwinner over in the family
Now we are the ones who need to take
Care of him over in this diagnosis.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Weekend Thoughts 3/21-3/23/2025:
Our dad found out
Five years ago or six
Years that he was going to
Be in the diagnosed with
Parkinson's and that he
Knew it would only go from
Really bad to beyond worse an
Understatement over in his condition.

 

[JPPT1974]

He had to for a
Couple of years in the having
To walk on a cane
In the matter of fact
He has had up to a dozen
Canes no joke but now he
Would have to be going on
A wheelchair that he doesn't like.

 

[JPPT1974]

As of this writing he
Is hoping to have on such an
Electric wheelchair and in
The hoping that over in the electric
Wheelchair will be much more
Easier for him and in the
Having on accessible on it
Praying that he will get some help over
In such an electric wheelchair.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Mon Thoughts 3/24/2025:
The disease was not at all
Diagnosed or in the using of
Common disease as it is now
Over due to retired actor Michael J
Fox and that he has lived up to
Thirty-four years over in
Being diagnosed on it.

 

[JPPT1974]

JPPT1974's Tues Thoughts 3/25/2025:
My mom now has been
Officially as his wife of
Fifty-six years and in his
Knowing her since they were
Teens back in 1966 nearly in
Sixty years ago and that
It has been a job in itself for her.
