Saturday School: Appliance Manual

An informal yet valuable learning experience:  It pays to discover your appliance manual.
Ever have your hot water heater stop giving you hot water?  I don’t know a lot about hot water heaters, and all the reasons that would cause it to stop providing hot water.  But now, thanks to a manual, I know that some stop providing hot water when the surrounding air is too hot believe it or not!  Without the manual, it could have been a time consuming and probably costly venture to figure out why a hot water heater decided to only give cold water.  By reading the manual, a very simple explanation and solution can be given:  it is too hot, and a reset button needs to be pushed and voila!  hot water is once again delivered to the faucet head.
Keep those manuals, they may come in handy!  If, however the manuals have been lost, many are available online--simply get the appliance make and model and search for it.  It really can save time and money!  Read them and use them to properly set up, maintain and extend the life of appliances.
We have a manual of sorts, the scriptures, to help us properly set up and maintain a happy life.  They can help us remember to reset our course, to repent, to rely on the Lord and thereby extend our happiness and peace in this life.
