The Market Gets Competitive for Home Buyers

If you are a buyer in today's real estate market, Listen Up!  Things are beginning to shift again.  More and more buyers are coming into the market to buy a home.  I don't think anyone knows why all the sudden, buyer's are ready to buy, however I have my opinion.  Interest rates are historically low and honestly they can't just stay this low forever.  Think about it, not too long ago everyone was smiling, houses values were sky rocketing, a lot of people thought they had this huge bank account to draw from.  Well, what goes up and up and up, sooner or later will explode. I know that sounds a bit cynical, but I am one of those people that look at the what if's.  For example; you are current renting and you are ready to buy your first home.  You are paying $1000 a month rent for this tiny 2 bedroom apartment.  With interest rates at the all time lows - ever - you could buy your own home for just about the same payment as your rent.  It's your (and the banks of course) and you can paint the walls whatever color you want.  You need shelter, so why not now and take advantage of the lowest interest rates ever, because they will go back up sooner or later.  Happy House Hunting!  Call me and I will sit down with you and create a plan that is perfect for you!

What Would You Say?

Two Sundays ago during morning service, Pastor Jack asked "When you stand before God and he asks you- "What Did You Do For Me"?  What would you say?

This really hit me and has been on my mind every day since that day.   I immediately started thinking about the things I have done, like saving clothes and giving them away to families that need them.  Does that count?  Helping on a Food Drive.  Does that count?  I helped collect toys for Toys for Tots.  Does that Count?
Surely, it means something, but is it enough?  We are raising our Granddaughter, but that is a Blessing to all of us, so I don't think that counts.  I have witnessed to others about what having Christ in my life has done for me.  I know that counts.

Some how, I just don't think it is enough.  I know that if I just still myself and listen, God will deliver the answer to me.
