God Produces Good for his Children

This past summer I moved out of my house. My boyfriend had broken up with me and my head wasn't exaclty on my sholders. I moved in with a friend who had the idea for me to move out in the first place. I was totally peer pressured. But that isn't my point of this story.
Anyways, two weeks after I moved out I got back with my boyfriend. So I was living with my friend and things were OK until we got in a fight, and then she kicked me out. And when I talked to my mom and my grandparents, they wouldn't have me back.
So there I was, on the street, with no place to go. I was lucky enough to have great friends who let me stay with them and my boyfriend put me in a hotel for a couple of days until I found a place. I ended up calling my dad once I got settled. I told him everything. I also decided not to ask for anything; just a couple phone calls now and then to ask how I'm doing.
That week I decided to attend my old church. I decided it was time to lay it all down - Ask God to help me out in my time of need. I prayed that I would find a great school and a great family to stay with. That week my dad had prayed to the Lord about my situation, and he felt the need to help me, to become the father he really never was my whole life. He told me he would pay for my rent and pay for me to go to ALA [Arizona Lutheran Academy]. And my boyfriend's sister offered for me to come and stay with her family.
"What's the point" you're asking? I guess I don't just have one; I have many. I learned that through my mess-ups God can still straighten my path, that when I ask i really will recieve, and whether your down or up, turn to God and he can bring you even higher than you expected.
