A few months ago our dishwasher stopped working. It wouldn't let me even run a cycle. We called a repairman out. He said it would be about $350.00 to fix. I knew we could buy a new one for not more than that so we didn't have him do the work.
I took the younger children with me as we went to Lowe's trying to price new dishwashers. Sierra asked what we were doing at the store. I explained we were trying to find a dishwasher that didn't cost very much money. Sierra has amazing faith and a strong testimony of the power of prayer. She immediately asked if she should say a prayer. I smiled as she sincerely asked Heavenly Father to help us find a dishwasher that cost .70 cents or 1 dollar. I thought that maybe with her faith we'd find some scratch and dent deal, but no such luck. When I went home I researched the problem a little and found a video that showed us how to replace the heating element. It looked like something we could handle. So after $29.00 to order the part, a little elbow grease from my boys, and a sincere prayer, our dishwasher has worked like a charm for months. The repair went pretty smoothly, other then the part where steaming hot water came spewing out uncontrollably and flooded the kitchen.
