Chest Freezer

[HealthAndHappiness]

Last month the Lord helped me find a part needed and made my big chest freezer work.

Now I discovered it isn't working again. My valuable food is thawing fast.. it's above freezing.
I left a message for an HVAC repairman. Still waiting for the response. Please pray that I can get it working again right away.

I will pray! Lord please help Mr. H&H to be able to fix his chest freezer soon! In Jesus' name Amen.

Praying for your freezer issues to be resolved. We went through this during the Covid lockdown. Our freezer died and to make matters worse nobody near us had any freezers in stock. They’re pretty much either built in China or built with China parts now.

We lost 50lbs of shrimp, two whole processed deer, and a whole hog. Made me sick to throw it out. We had an upright frost free 22 cu.ft. When our appliance store received a shipment two weeks after ours failed, all they had were chest freezers. So we bought a medium sized one.

The Lord has blessed us again. My son got three nice deer and one hog this past season. We had to buy another freezer so we got another 22cu. ft. upright frost free. Now we have two freezers full. I’ve since told my wife not to buy more than 5lbs. of shrimp at a time. We now have 10 lbs. frozen.

We live close to the coast so we can get fresh shrimp cheap.

Wow that would've been terrible. I'm so glad you got some more.

We've often canned meat instead of freezing it, then it doesn't get hurt if the power goes out. But some cuts are better frozen.

I’ve bought the stuff to can meat but we haven’t done any. My wife pretty much makes enough jelly for our entire extended family. Now that she is a caretaker for her elderly mother we don’t have time to can anything.

Couldn't you buy bagged ice until the repair can be made?

The freezer compressor quit running altogether yesterday evening.
The unit was getting power, but nothing was functioning at all.
I worked on it yesterday with no improvement.
After we prayed last night, it occurred to me that there's a part whose function is to only activate when manually defrosting. I disconnected that solenoid and plugged the freezer back in. It must have been the Lord helping me because it started working again!
I just checked when I woke up and the system is still working. It's cooling down.
Thank you for praying with me my dear friend! ❤️

Thanks for mentioning that because it's sometimes basic things we forget when a stressful event happens. I wanted to find dry ice first. I can't find anyone around here that sells it any more.

HopeInHim, Notmyown, God's girl, Magenta, 3nails4given, seoulsearch, PennEd, and anyone else that I might have missed, thank you ever so much for your prayers. God intervened and helped me to do something that none of the HVAC guys on YouTube considered. Those men know how to repair all kinds of coolant appliances. I have only done basics. That's not my field. God knows all things though.
He has been very kind.

God bless you all.....lots!

Quite distressing. I will pray for God to facilitate a timely, effective repair that fits your budget.

Thanks.
I think He already did.

That's a great idea.
All your eggs won't be in one basket that way.
If / when the grid goes down that will be a good way to keep food. Even grocery stores might not have power.

Even in the small and mundane issues is life our Heavenly Father is there! "Father I pray that there would be someone who could help and bring a reliable solution to this issue!" Scripture tells us "to continually be in prayer" and to "trust in the Lord with all our heart, and He will direct our paths". This is truth! Thank you Father for however you will answer this prayer!

Thank you friend. My freezer needs a new lid/ seal, but is running fine.
God showed me much mercy and continues to do so.
Please pray for my health and healthy provisions to go into the freezer. I've been knocked down hard by loss of family. I need a job soon too.
