    For the difference equation \[ x_n= [(f_1f_2f_3+ f_1+ f_2+ f_3+ h)/(f_1f_2+ f_1f_3+ f_2f_3+ g+ h)](x_{n-1},\dots, x_{n-r}) \] with continuous functions \(f_1,f_2,f_3,g,h: (\mathbb{R}_+)^r\to \mathbb{R}_+\) and positive initial values, sufficient conditions are given such that 1 is a globally asymptotic stable equilibrium.
