Grateful for a Visit to the Scrap Yard

@gratefuleveryday · 2025-03-19 20:50 · aliveandthriving

We had some metal parts from some shelves that we were not using, so rather than just putting it at the curb, we visited a local scrap yard to try to get some dollars for them..

I took my young boy with me because I knew he would really enjoy seeing the heavy equipment.

But what got him so excited was seeing the bright yellow machinery moving all the scrap around. He thought that was GREAT!

The scrap yard was actually well kept, I was expecting a bigger mess, but the scrap was well managed and the process of weighing, dumping, weighing and getting paid was really easy.

We threw away our shelves parts for $0.01 / lb. We left behind about 146lbs, they rounded up to $15.00. Being handed $15 cash and getting rid of something taking up room in the garage, was a win-win, in my book.

But spending precious time with my boy was the biggest win of the day!

Bless the Most High!

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us. >No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books. *I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.* ---
