HOW TO OBTAIN A LOAN USING YOUR CHILDREN AS COLLATERAL By Kathy Peel When my banker learns I’ve written something on the topic of family finance, he will no doubt call the Library of Congress to have my work reclassified as fiction. This guy has the personality of a bug zapper. To tell you the truth, I’m a little miffed at him at the moment. I think it’s pretty tacky that some bankers send their customers discount interest incentives for new loans. And others give nice gifts for maintaining a minimum balance. My banker sends sympathy cards to my children. I mean, the nerve of him to think I would overdraw my account on purpose just to aggravate his ulcer. I told him not to take it personally—that it’s usually due to a simple addition or subtraction error, an automatic draft I didn’t record, or the thirteen missing checks I forgot to enter in the checkbook. But it still puzzles me how a person like me—who keeps impeccable records—could regularly be overdrawn. As soon as I write a check, I immediately grab a tube of lipstick or crayon and write down the approximate amount of the check on the back of a gum wrapper. And even if I do forget to record the amount of a check once in a while, I don’t worry about it because I keep a fifty-dollar buffer

in the account to fool myself. This works well unless it’s the check for the mortgage I forget to record. Actually, I have my own method of accounting to balance our checkbook. I drop the last digit, add my weight! (not the one on my physician’s chart, but the one on my driver’s license), multiply by the number of children under our roof at that moment, and divide by my shoe size. That’s close enough for me. Actually, I have made some progress toward keeping our checkbook balanced. I hired an accountant. But that didn’t make figuring out our family budget any easier. Quite frankly, I think budgets are downright unbiblical. You probably already know this, but God did not create the budget. Nowhere in the Bible will you find God putting one of his prophets on a budget. No, God is a loving and generous God. The budget is a human idea. But as much as I hate it, we need some sort of system to figure out how much money we don’t have every

month. To tell you how much it costs to keep my family of five fed would only make you think I’m a few shrimp short of a cocktail. I hate those women’s magazines with articles about how to feed a family of six on ninety six dollars a month. You show me a woman who can do this, and I’ll show you a woman whose entire family is anorexic. The way my kids eat, ninety-six dollars gets me down the first aisle and halfway through the dairy case. Since the cost of living seems to increase in our family by the hour, we’ve had to be creative about making extra money. One way we’ve increased our family income is buying houses, fixing them up, then selling them at a profit. We’ve moved seven times in the last twenty-two years. The first stress-producing part of remodeling houses is applying for a loan. Few will argue that bankers consider those of us who fall into the dubious category of “selfemployed” on the same level with lepers. During one particular house-hunting venture, we began our search for a home loan at a local bank. The loan officer looked like Ken who had a wife at home named Barbie. He had perfect posture—so as not to wrinkle the back of his shirt—his nails were perfectly manicured, and he had a head of hair any televangelist would die for. But the hair on his neck was evidently not sprayed down, because it stood straight up when we mentioned we were self-employed. We didn’t stay long. Finally we found a loan officer at a large bank who was willing to work with us. We breathed a sigh of relief when we started the loan application process. It didn’t take long to figure out the word privacy had absolutely no meaning to this man. He wanted to know everything from our blood type and underwear size to how many times we brush our teeth each day. He called us every day for the next three weeks to ask more questions. I had to account for every penny I’d spent for the past three years. Trust me, this was no small task for a woman who uses her canceled checks for confetti on New Year’s Eve. Feeling a little put out, I suggested to Bill we just take off our clothes and stand in front of his desk. He knew every other detail of our lives—why not all? In what was obviously a great act of faith on the banker’s part, he loaned us the money for the house we wanted to

Devotion of the Week

Following the coronation of Edward the Sixth, a large procession began to make its way to the banquet hall to celebrate the historic event. In front of the king and leading the procession were three soldiers carrying swords that represented the countries of England, Scotland and Wales. “Stop,” protested Edward. “There is one more sword that should be with them. It is the Bible, the sword of the Spirit.” At his suggestion, a Bible was located, and placed at the head of the procession. What a wonderful expression of the rightful place for the Word of God—at the beginning of any journey. If we want our lives to move in the right direction, we must always follow the guidance we find in His Word. If we want to be certain that we are going where He wants us to go, we must always let His instructions lead us. If we begin the day with God’s Word, we will have His presence with every step. If we end the day with His Word, we will have His comfort throughout the night. Seeds of Hope

remodel. But you must understand that families like ours, who don’t have a lot of extra capital to invest, must live in their house and work on it at the same time. This can be interesting—to say the least. Think about it. Have you ever seen a picture of a woman shaving her legs with a paring knife over the kitchen sink because the bathroom’s torn up? Or how many photographs show an irate lady trying to track down the electrician who skipped the country after installing her ceiling fan with two speeds—off and hurricane? After remodeling our last house, we lived in it for eleven years. This posed a definite problem for a wom-

an who lives with four men who refuse to throw away their old toothbrushes. “If we’re going to put our house on the market, we’ll have to clear a path so lookers can walk through,” I said with authority. They did not respond. I knew I’d have to be ruthless. “Okay, boys, let’s start with your things,” I said. “I think we can probably live without this headless GI Joe figure . . .” “No way you’re throwing him away. He’s my favorite guy,” James countered. “Fine. How about this stringless guitar? It’s just taking up space.” “Don’t touch my guitar!” Joel pleaded. “In five

years I’m going to start my own band.” “Mom,” John begged. “When you run an ad for the house, just don’t include our room. That way, when we move out and the new people move in, they’ll think they got a bonus room with the deal.” I want to insert here that I try—with God’s help--to be a woman who always tells the truth. I’ve taught my children that half-truths or not speaking up when asked a question to which they know the answer is the same as telling a lie. With every one of you as my witness, I confess that when my teenagers asked if I had seen their collection of 538 bottle caps, I said I gave them to a man who came to the door holding a gun and wearing pantyhose over his head. When James couldn’t find his treasure box filled with three years’ worth of expired toy coupons, a paper-clip necklace, fourteen empty fast-food containers, an empty jelly packet, and seven jelly-coated pennies, I told him I had no idea where it was. (Well, I didn’t have any idea which garbage dump it ended up in.) And to this day, when Bill asks me if I’ve seen his very favorite faded, stained, shabby, ragged, bedraggled, dilapidated work shorts, I quickly change the subject. Once I cleaned out enough clutter so we could honestly advertise that the house had closets, it went on the market. For a woman whose kitchen is listed on Club Medfly’s most desirable list, keeping things public-ready is no party. We asked our real estate agent to put “Call before showing” in our ad, so at least we could hide the breakfast dishes in the clothes dryer before people walked through. We learned that most agents did call—from their car phones in front of our house. Good thing the house sold in three weeks because we couldn’t live life in fast-forward much

longer without becoming the first family to suffer simultaneous coronaries. I’m telling you, when the phone rang we moved at the speed of light. We put dirty clothes under potted plants, threw wet towels in the deep freeze, and hid newspapers in the piano. When we moved, I found my checkbook in the waffle iron. After signing away our valuables, any possible inheritance, and our children at the title company, we started loading up our belongings. We resembled the road crew from Ringling Brothers Circus. It took three days, but

we finally got everything moved and we saved a lot of money by doing it ourselves. Exhausted, we sat down in a circle of odd pieces of furniture and dedicated our house to God. We prayed that he would make it a home filled with love, joy, and good memories. I personally prayed that if any family members ever mentioned the idea of stretching our budget by remodeling and moving again, God would keep me from wringing their neck. So far, he’s answered that prayer.

Threads of Life ••• Flea Markets •••

by Cleo LeVally Ever been to a flea market? They are not as popular now as they were a few years ago when money was not so tight. But they are a lot of fun, and you can see and/or find something you have always wanted or just like because it is interesting. A flea market is fun. It is a good place to meet interesting people and pig out on interesting food. It is also a cultural happening. Flea markets are the museums of the not-solong-ago. We are talking history. They remind us

of who we used to be and show us how we are changing. W hy are they called flea markets? The name comes from the French marche’ aux puces, an acknowledgement that the clothes and bedding sold at bazaars were often infested with parasites. American tourists brought the term home after World War II. Such markets had been around since the Middle Ages, and in America since Colonial times, but in the 1950s and

through the 1960s their popularity soared. There is no such thing as a typical flea market. One can range from a few tables set up in a church parking lot to a Canton, Texas-size operation, featuring tents and tables by the thousands. Years ago, I attended the one at Canton, Texas, and I know for a fact that you can find a lot more than fleas at that flea market. Most das during the month it is 100 acres of rolling fields, empty except for a few scattered stands of native oak. On the first Monday of each month, a swarm of nomads in pickup trucks and trailers set up camp,

unfolding hundreds of tables and piling them sky high with goods. Out on Interstate 20, hordes of weekend browsers are heading that way from the greater Dallas area, eager to paw through the flotsam and jetsam of other people’s lives. You can find about anything you want in the treasure trove, and chances are you can get it pretty cheap, or at least at the price you want to pay. Most of the month, Canton is a small, quiet town of about 3,500. During the weekend before the first Monday of each month, more than 3,000 dealers,

some of them coming from as far away as New York, rent the 5,800 spaces available at the fairgrounds. Motels are sold out for miles around. Residents view this congestion as a mixed blessing and crowds overwhelm cherished local institutions, such as the Dairy Queen. Also a mixed blessing, homeowners no longer have to pay property taxes because of the revenues generated by the market. Yes, the day I spent at the flea market in Canton, Texas was very satisfactory for me. I found two small pieces of antique furniture that I really like and enjoy very much. I’ll go again if I have the opportunity.

One Pharmacist’s View As far as I know, President Obama is still on his long and expensive tour of the known world. He loves making speeches and who wouldn’t love being hauled around on Air force-One? His visit to Germany led to lavish praise being heaped upon their socialistic leader, Chancellor Markel. He especially liked her immigration policy in which over one million Arabs were allowed to flood into Germany. The immigrants, naturally, have not responded kindly. Thousands have demonstrated for better housing and have had to be relocated to places of their dictates. Riots and demonstrations

Obama and Merkel

continue against the German hosts much to the chagrin of the welcoming Germans. One inappropriate demonstration last week featured howling mobs of Palestinians yelling “Adolph Hitler” and Allah Akbar. The name of Hitler is not hardly ever heard in Germany these days as it represents hate, racism and some bad history for the German people. It’s both impolite and vulgar to their hosts, the Germans. A fter heaping all this inappropriate praise on the host country, Germany, which left the people there both confused and bewil-

dered, Obama went over to see what he could stir up over in England. More advice, I suppose. He held a joint press conference with British Leader David Cameron which one person later on (the Mayor of London) called weird and somewhat disgusting. My wife and I watched this long press conference, finally tired of it. Why is he acting so weird we wondered and I guess that was the question of the day as others were soon asking the same thing. Obama had taken a bust of one of England’s favorite hero’s-war-time Prime Minister Churchill out of

sions (denominations)? So where did they all come from? To answer this, let’s note two Scriptures from the Apostle Paul. First, Paul told the elders (also called Bishops) of the church in Ephesus, “after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock. Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves.” (Acts 20:29-30) Does he not indicate that divisions will arise from men teaching “perverse” things to draw away disciples after them? The New International Version says men will “distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them.” (Acts 20:30) Who can deny that departures from the teaching of the Apostles have resulted in many denominations? Second, Paul wrote in

1 Timothy 4:1-3, “that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.” In this passage, Paul even names two false teachings of those who have departed from the faith and divided Christ’s followers. Does he not also name the source of these divisive false teaching – “deceiving spirits,” “demons” and “lies spoken in hypocrisy?” Do not be deceived, there are many denominations because men have departing from the truth. Denominations are of men, not of God!

Light from God’s Word

Mark Legg “Why are there so many denominations?” Where did all of the churches come from? Did Jesus establish all of them? Jesus promised, “I will build my Church.” Please note that He said, “church” and not “churches.” He did not promise to build many churches, but a singular, “church.” In addition, Jesus prayed that all who believe in Him “may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us.” (John 17:20-21) Since Jesus prayed that all His followers would be “one,” doesn’t it seem unlikely that He approves of the hundreds of divi-

the Oval Office when he took over as President. He never liked Churchill and thought the Prime Minister was just another racist, so it was said. This really upset the people in England and quite a few in the USA. After a big “dust up” over the missing bust, it made a reappearance on the second floor. But no one was actually happy about it. Obama threw a little fuel on the fire when asked about the removed bust by saying there was just room for just so much clutter in the oval office and if “I” put just any old busts in there it would be cluttered. “So I took it out and put it up on the 2nd floor.” T hus, the President seized yet another opportunity to hurt the feelings of perhaps our best and greatest ally in the world by insulting their greatest hero and comparing his bust to just “clutter.” As to the weird stuff. Why was that? Was he drinking or had he calmed his nerves that day with a little weed? He took a little time to do some more backtracking

on history, denouncing the Iraq war and downplaying the Syrian mess which he created all by himself. I give him some credit there. H is dislike for Jews draws out his own racism and problems he has with Israel. Hopefully the next president can right that policy a little. However, if you remember, Bill and Hillary developed a great distaste toward Israel’s leadership during his terms and Bill just about made a fool out of himself over the Arafat’s. Yasser and his wife were entertained multiple times in the White House and taken out to his “Holy of Holies” Camp David. Hillary later took Mrs. Arafat to New York on a shopping trip. I hope Lady Arafat had her own credit card. Probably not. I hope you are enjoying the NBA playoffs as much as me. Not many years ago I could have cared less about the welfare of those basketball playing millionaires. But now I’m hooked. Go Thunder! And don’t forget to go to church this Sunday.

Mustangs storm to district championship by Herman BROWN Allen correspondent

The Allen Mustangs will advance to the Class A regional baseball tournament this weekend. Coach Steven Caldwell’s Mustangs qualified for the second weekend of playoff action by storming to the district championship. Allen outscored opponents in three games a combined 30-0 in a runrule sweep. The one-sided district was staged April 21 at the Allen High School. In Game 1, the Mustangs blanked Dewar on an 8-0 count. Game 2 was a 10-0 game over Maud. Allen then captured the district crown in Game 3 with a 12-0 game against Maud. The district opener featured Tommy Peay winning the mound decision. Peay worked 5 innings and delivered a 2-hit, shutout that included 2 walks and

7 strikeouts. AHS scored four times in the second inning and four more runs in the fourth inning. Rush Black was the leading batter for the Mustangs. Black was 3-for-3, scored once and drove in a pair of runs. Ty Brown was also a key offensive player. He was 2-for-3 with 2 runs scored and drove in 2 RBI. The team was a combined 8-for-22 with 8 runs, 7 RBI and 4 walks. In Game 2, Allen took down the Maud Tigers on a 10-0 decision in four innings. Josiah Jones was flawless in his pitching performance. Jones worked 4 innings and gave up 0 runs, 0 hits and 0 walks while recording 3 strikeouts. Allen was 7-for-16 at the plate with 10 runs, 8 RBI and 3 walks. Individually, Tadyn

Walker was the top performer. He was 2-for2 with a double, scored twice and brought home 2 runs. Allen moved on to Game 3 and had the Maud Tigers on the ropes. The Mustangs then delivered the knockout blow on a 12-0 decision in three innings. Tucker Elliot was perfect on the mound in his three-inning victory. Elliott struck out eight batters of the nine outs recorded in the game. He allowed 0 runs, 0 hits and surrendered 1 walk. Allen’s offensive effort included an 8-for14 showing at the plate. The Mustangs scored 12 runs, drove in 10 RBI and reached base on 5 walks. Tucker Elliot was 2-for3, scored once and drove in five runs. Tommy Peay was 2-for2 with 3 runs and added 2 RBI. Drew Back was 2-for-2 with 1 run scored and 2 RBI. The other hits were from Ty Brown and Tadyn Walker. With the win, Allen secured the title and will advance to the regional tournament this weekend. On Saturday, Allen plated a non-playoff game at Tushka against the hosting Tigers. The Mustangs battled but came up one run short in a 3-2 contest. Allen got off to a quick start with a pair of runs in the top of the first inning. However, that would be the only scoring the visitors would enjoy in this Saturday outing. Tushka came back to score twice in the second inning to even the count at 2-2. The Tigers added the game-winning run in the third inning to make it a 3-2 lead - and would end up as the final score.

Both teams generated five hits and made one error. Colton Frederick was saddled with the loss after working 6 innings at Tushka. Frederick allowed 3 runs on 5 hits and 6 walks while recording 1

strikeout. The leading hitter for AHS was Tommy Peay with a 2-for-4 and scored 1 run. The other hits came from Josiah Jones, Drew Back and Ty Brown. Allen ended up 5-for-26 at the plate wth 2 runs, 2 RBI and 1 walk.
