God is.. facebook?

Since the beginning of this semester I have been worrying about the summer. I was planning on storing all my stuff in the residence hall, but they sent me an email saying they are no longer storing students' boxes. Of course the year I'll be moving into that residence hall, they stop letting people store things. So I start frantically searching for summer storage.. boxmydorm.. dormroommovers.. they were all over priced asking $40-50 per box. After calculating the price of all the boxes plus registration fee, it came to about $160. I felt the stress sink in.

I don't have a steady income anymore. I just bought my plane tickets to fly back here, and I might not have enough to last me through this semester.

I sat in panic

what do I do if I run out? I've already borrowed so much from mom and dad, I don't want to ask again.. I can't.

For the next month or so fear snuck in on me whenever I thought about storing stuff for the summer. I prayed often asking for a way, telling myself He will provide. Then, one day out of the blue, my friend asked to have lunch together. We were eating and talking about korean artists and dramas we were watching when she mentioned she was going to fly back home for the summer. She then told me she was still leasing out her apartment because she had to keep her stuff here. And even before I asked, I knew that God had provided.

Sometimes He works through friends, sometimes family, sometimes strangers. I believe there's a reason I know the people I have come to know. Who needs websites for social networking when u've got someone who knows (literally) everyone.
