PUMPKIN PATCH IN ROCKWALL, TEXAS   The Pumpkin Patch in Rockwall is the perfect way to  start the fall season.  Children love picking out their own pumpkins, and love going home to start carving it according to their own creative imagine.

Psalm 39, psalm of David. I said, "I will watch my ways, and put a muzzle on my mouth while in the  psalm of David I said, "I will watch my ways; and  while in the presence of of the Lord. I will put a muzzle on my mouth while in the in the presence ."  So I remained utterly silent, not even saying anything good.  But my anguish  increased;  I remained utterly silent, not even saying anything good.  But my anguish  increased; my heart grew hot within me. While I mediated, the fire turned; and I spoke with my tongue; "Show me, Lord, Lord,  and I spoke with my tongue; "Show me, Lord, my life's end and the number of my days; and the number of my days let me know how fleeting my life is. You have made me made my life days a mere hand breath; the span of my years is as nothing before you. E... 10/19/2013

  When an out of town Buyer hires me to preview properties I am BOLD WITH PASSION.     If a Buyer is trying to sell their home in another state, they are counting on me to be prepared and to know what they want. A Buyer expects me to have properties that meet their criteria when they arrive. That is why I act BOLDLY WITH PASSION even when I preview without them.     It is better to be an example of boldness against passion than to give insult to a Buyer by sending them listings I did not preview. My buyers are counting on me to be their eyes, ears, nose and to know they don't have time to waste. Time is of the essence when you move out of state. I am looking for 3 or more acres in the Dallas Metroplex, horses permitted, 4 bedrooms, barn and workshop. A second master bedroom or Guest Hou... 09/19/2013

LIFE AFTER DEATH Philippians 1:21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. From my daily devotional from Billy Graham  Hope for Each Day.  I have asked a number of scientists questions concerning life after death, and most of them say, "We just do not know."  Science deals deals in formulas and test tubes.  But there is a spiritual world science knows nothing about.  Because many do not believe in life after death, we find writings filled with tragedy and pessimism.  The writings of William Faulkner, James Joyce, and many others are filled with pessimism, darkness, and tragedy.  Sadly, he same was often true of their lives.  How different from Jesus Christ who said, "I am the resurrection and the life.  He whoever in Me, though he may die shall never die."  John 11:25-26 Our ho... 08/17/2013
