Whataburger Gospel

Trash.  Dispose of it.  Right?
I saw this on the side of my Whataburger bag:  “When I am empty please dispose of me properly.”
At first, of course, seeing this made me chuckle a bit.  Do we really need instructions?  I thought we all knew what to do with our trash.
Then, another thought came to mind.  What does it mean when someone says, “I am at your disposal?”  It literally means I am available to be put into a position of whatever is needed of me.
Also, there are many times I feel empty.  Especially recently.  But I’ve been looking for ways to be filled; from my husband, from my child, from my hobbies.
Really, my next fill-up comes from God.  It comes from praying friends.  It comes from hearing His Word.  It comes from having a song in my heart even in sad situations.
So, Lord, when I am empty, I am at your disposal.  I am ready to be filled. Fill me with what I need.  Quench my thirst.

All this insight from an innocent Whataburger dinner.  I’m glad I didn’t feel like cooking tonight.

We have enjoyed adding in a few great resources at the Download Club from My Teaching Library !  Trying out My Teaching Library was perfect timing!  For our Kindergarten curriculum, during "Sun" and "Moon" weeks, we used worksheets from the Download Club.   My Teaching Library offers resources for all grades starting with PreK!   First up for us was the Solar System Posters and Worksheets to help Kory learn more about the Sun and its size compared to other planets.  The quality of these posters and worksheets are great!  We saw how close Mercury is to the sun and how tiny Pluto is! Next is "Ll Leaf" week and we did an Autumn Art Leaf Mobile craft project. Even Noelle, my 22 month-old girl, enjoyed some activity pages from MTL.  She ha...

Disclaimer: I received a FREE copy of this product through the HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW in exchange for my honest review. I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way. It was Mama's turn to study while growing spiritually through the Faith Journeys Bible Study Series: Romans  bundle with Julie Polanco from Julie Naturally . I went through an 8 week study with Julie through the book of Romans.  The study is video-based and a study guide is available to print (or shipped for a small fee).  The videos feel like you're right there in Julie's living room with her while watching.  I also can listen to the videos while in my office working on sewing projects. In the study guide, there is a scripture focus and questions for thought following along in the study.  These work best for me because it allows me to dig deeper into scripture and grow more spiritually. As you go through the study and read through the book of Romans, there ar...

Disclaimer: I received a FREE copy of this product through the HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW in exchange for my honest review. I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way. My girls love doing music class at home with our  Musik at Home Membership ! We can do the class literally anywhere.  I just log in, find the song we're doing, and let it play on the laptop while the girls sing and play along.  There is also a Musik at Home app available for Android, iOS, and Amazon Fire TV. The videos are very personal; it's as if you're in Kathryn's living room!   Tapping our knees. There really are options for children of all ages.  Musik at Home starts with music for babies and toddlers.  You can start music and singing with even the youngest of babies.  We know that singing is great for development, and Musik at Home helps parents with these special times! These classes go beyond just typical kids' music class song...
