See how great a love
2 Timothy 3:16, 17
V. 16 All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness ;
V. 17 so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.
· The Word says ALL Scripture is inspired and profitable.
Verse 17 goes hand in hand with 1 Timothy 2:15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth.
Interesting that the original Greek word for accurately & handling are the same and it means to cut straight, to cut straight ways, to proceed on straight paths, hold a straight course, equiv. to doing right to make straight and smooth, to handle aright, to teach the truth directly and correctly.
God gives us this power to present His Word but it must be according to His guidance and leadership, not our will but His Will be done!
Look at the Son of God’s confession in John 5:19- Therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing ; forwhatever the Father does, these things the Son also does in like manner.
And John 5:30-"I can do nothing on My own initiative. As I hear, I judge ; and My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.
Where are we to be? I’m so glad you asked. Jesus stated in John chapter 15 that He is the true vine and we are the branches and apart from Him, we can do nothing! These Scriptures really take on new power and meaning when we correlate them with Jesus’s prayer in John 17, especially verse 21- that they may all be one ; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.
1 John 3:1-3 see how great a love the Father has bestowed on us…

New research shows the importance of the real estate industry in Texas
Recent data from the Real Estate Center at Texas A&M University shows that real estate is the state's second-largest industry after manufacturing. The new data comes from an ongoing REC research program that monitors the relative importance of the industry and its resulting wealth for the state.
According to Ali Anari, Ph.D., a research economist with the REC, the Texas real estate industry accounted for 8.4% of the state's gross domestic product (GDP) in 2011. The data also reveals that the largest proportion of self-employed Texans are in the real estate industry.
Other data shows the total real estate wealth in 2011 for various properties, including:
- $945.1 billion for single-family residential wealth
- $85.1 billion for multifamily residential wealth
- Almost $279 billion for commercial wealth

Selling your home during the holidays
So how should you best market your home during the holidays? Take the same careful consideration as with any other time of year, but add a bit of holiday flair for warmth. Just don't go overboard a la Clark Griswold and the holiday lights in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.
The fact is that homes look and feel warm and inviting when they are decorated for the holidays, and that's very appealing to buyers. You want buyers to picture their own family in the festive environment you've created. If it's cold and you have an open house scheduled, it can't hurt to have a fire going in the fireplace, hot cider at the door and even candy canes for potential buyers.
Most importantly, consider your selling price carefully and be realistic. When setting the asking price, ask your Texas REALTOR® to compare similar homes sold in the winter months/during the holidays. Many owners set their asking price too high because of comparisons with sales prices during peak seasons. Always try to compare similar properties sold at the same time of year.

Price it RIGHT... Or you'll get a lower price later
In my 23+ years of real estate I've observed one key thing; folks thinking of selling their home really don't like to hear this statement. Most feel, when they hear "price it right" they are being asked to sell at a reduced price and the realtor just wants a quick sale. In reality it is a TIMELY sale both the seller and realtor should want. In a market where we have an over abundance of pre-owned & new construction homes for sale, pricing becomes even more critical and as a rule, the longer your home remains on the market...the less you will get. Overpricing, especially in a market that is saturated with homes for sale, is a big, big mistake. An agent that knows and keeps current with the market and what is going on in that particular neighborhood and surrounding area will know how to price your home to get it sold expediently while still realizing for you the highest and best sales price.
*In conclusion most showings for any home will take place during its first 2-4 weeks on the market - when it’s an exciting, new listing! So it’s critical that the asking price be razor sharp to the actual value right from the start of your home being put on the market!! *Steve Young has been a top producing Realtor since 1989. Growing up in the DFW metroplex, he knows areas and values extremely well. He was the rookie of the year 1990 and Realtor of the year 2005 for the Arlington Board of Realtor's, is the past chairman for the Arlington Board of Realtor's for 2008 and Chairman of the Arlington Board of Realtors Community Service Foundation.

Was the other guys fault
Reminds me of my first paper route I took over from a kid that had almost lost half the accounts on the route. One day after several days of hearing nothing but complaints from some of the previous paperboy's customers, I came home to complain about the mess I'd inherited. Well, my Mom basically said...get over it like now and get out there and show them why they should take the paper from you. It really does not matter what happened previous, can't do anything about that. What matters is what you do with it NOW!
Can you see now why I don't like whiners and finger pointers?
Hey, current administration...get over it...woops...too late

Character Matters...
Dear Steve,
From time to time, I would like to share with you a column that says something very important. This is true of the attached column by Thomas Sowell. He has been a guest on Point of View in the past, and does a good job of reminding us that character matters.
 |
| Read Thomas Sowell's Column |
Some of our presidents in the past have had trouble telling the truth (Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton come to mind). In fact, during the scandals that plagued the Clinton Administration, many in the media began to claim that what happens in a person’s private life doesn’t matter, all that matters is how well they do their job. As Christians we know that character does matter because the decisions an individual makes, even those affecting their job performance, flow out of that character.
That’s why I wanted to share this column by Thomas Sowell. No doubt you have seen online or on some of the news sources video of then Senator Barack Obama addressing a group of people in Louisiana about the government’s handling of the Katrina crisis.
Many would say what he said doesn’t matter because it was so long ago. Thomas Sowell does a great job of explaining why that isn’t true as he sets in context the comments made by then Senator Obama.
I hope you will read the column and that the information you find will be beneficial.

Psalms 45:1
I recite my composition concerning the King;
My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
Interesting info regarding "Green" & the FTC
Labeling products or services as eco-friendly or green just got a little more serious. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently finalized its Green Guides, a resource created for marketers to help them avoid making false environmental claims about their products or services.
The modified guidelines warn against making broad claims that a product is environmentally friendly. According to an FTC consumer-perception study, terms such asgreen or eco-friendly suggest to consumers that a product has specific environmental benefits. These claims are hard to substantiate and sometimes impossible.
The guidelines also apply to products in homes, such as windows or flooring, as well as certifications and seals of approval. Companies that violate the guidelines are now facing potential fines and lawsuits from the FTC.
Candy Cooke, a Green designee and instructor for the National Association of REALTORS®, says that it’s important to be familiar with what terms like green and eco-friendly mean. She cautions against advertising a property as green unless it has met standards set by certifying bodies or programs. Instead, explain to potential buyers what green additions are in the home and their benefits. "Say, 'We've upgraded the insulation,' or 'we've changed out the windows,' or 'we've tried to use products that wouldn't cause any hazardous odors.' I avoid using green; I call it quality," Cooke says.
