Have a will

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams

Most Americans die without creating a will.  From a stewardship perspective, not completing an estate plan is irresponsible.  The following documents are often recommended:

A will

A durable power-of-attorney for finances

A durable power-of-attorney for health care

Your will is actually a lover letter to your family and friends.  It shows that you cared enough to organize your estate for their benefit. 

"thus says the lord, set your house in order, for you shall die..." (2 Kings 20:1)

"a good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children..." (Proverbs 13:22)

Great post. Love the Word. I think a will is one of those things people intend to do tomorrow, and never do.

Two years ago was "March Maintenance " month which included doing my will. Sad to say it has still not been taken care of.

Nice post Rick.  I like the quotes.  I should probably look into setting up a Will.
