Read 1 Chronicles Chapter 21 or click on this link: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Chronicles%2021&version=GW   David Counts the People Why was the sin of counting Israel considered such a big deal that 70,000 Israelites died? Well for one it was a sin of pride. David was tempted by Satan to count the people. Everything was going so right for David up to this point when he decided (was tempted) to start the census.  David didn’t wake up one morning and impulsively decide to have a big problem. It started with a little thing, called pride and it built up from there. You see David was proud of the many victories that God gave Israel in battle. He was proud that Israel had such a great army, and with such pride He wanted to see how many young men would be growing up to be...

Psalm 24:4-5 (GOD’S WORD Translation)  4The one who has clean hands and a pure heart      and does not long for what is false[a]         or lie when he is under oath. 5This person will receive a blessing from the Lord      and righteousness from God, his savior. Purify me from sin with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. Do you yearn to be pure before the Lord? Nothing beats living a pure life before God, and having sweet fellowhsip with Jesus, when we know our heart is clean. What Joy and Peace we know when we Trust and Obey!Are you failing in your Christian life because you are not pure? If you are, you’re not alone. It seems as though a sewer pipe of filth and debauchery has broken and poured out into our world. Someone has well said, “Not since Man...

If you're trying to sell or thinking about selling your O'Fallon, Belleville, Shiloh, Mascoutah, IL home, this is a must read by Alan May, Coldwell Banker Realtor in Evanston.  Please feel free to contact me directly at 618-972-0836 for a personalized assessment of your property.   7 Reasons why your property won't sell 1. Your property won't sell because your photos are "less than impressive". The vast majority of home buyers start their search for a home on the Internet, so your property had better look fantastic in print. Not just nice, it has to look downright fabulous.  Today an internet view is the same as a 'virtual showing'... if your house gets past that, then they might (just might) make an appointment to see it in person... You should really consider that your SECOND showing....

Are you condsidering purchasing investment property or rental property? Patience is the key to purchasing investment property! In the article above (click link above) it mentions some very good and valuable information. When you are looking for a good sound investment, be sure to use a Realtor with experience and that owns rental property! I have been very sucessful with investors because of the experience of owning 10 rental properties, all duplexes. Your first step besides finding an agent with first hand knowledge of rental property, is to know your financing options. In most cases today lenders will require a 25% downpayment, so be prepared. Also, be expecting to pay a little higher interest rate, perhaps 1/2 point higher, if not a full point higher. This is because it is a higher r...
