We make decent money, we are constantly broke, just last year, with less income we did great, now barely affording any groceries.
My 18 year old daughter moved into a rental with her jobless wonder boyfriend. She doesnt even have towells, trash bags, toilet paper, soap, dishes, vaccum, cleaning supplies or well, nothing except a bed, tv, couch and some decorations. WHAT was she thinking??? She has NO gas money and NO grocery money...does not get paid until the 31st. I cannot help her and frankly am ticked she did this...
Need GOD to intervene!
PLEASE HELP!!!

Here is some great scripture for you. I said a little prayer for you and your family.
Now glory be to God! By his mighty power at work within us, he is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare or ask or hope. —Ephesians 3:20 NLT
Wait for the Lord; Be strong, and let your heart take courage, yes, wait for the Lord. —Psalm 27:14 NASB
We depend on the Lord alone to save us. Only he can help us, protecting us like a shield. In Him our hearts rejoice, for we are trusting in his holy name. Let your unfailing love surround us, Lord, for our hope is in you alone.
Psalm 33:20-22 NLT
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11NIV
We who have run for our very lives to God have every reason to grab the promised hope with both hands and never let go. It’s an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, reaching past all appearances right to the very presence of God. —From the Message, Hebrews 6
Be still and know that I am God. Psalm 46:10
They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings as eagles. They shall run and not be weary and they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31
Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Mt 6:8...............your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.
Ps 34:10............those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.
Ps 24:1..............The earth is the Lord's, and all it's fullness,...
Ps 50:10............every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.
Gen 18:14..........Is anything to hard for the Lord?
Mt 7:7................Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

Isaiah 54: 7-8 - http://scriptures.lds.org/en/isa/54/7-8#7
7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.
8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.
Humans have always been prone to error. Heavenly Father gave us a redeemer so that we (and our daughters) can learn from mistakes.
Also, I have found this blessing to be very true...
Malachi 3: 10 - http://scriptures.lds.org/en/mal/3/10#10
10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
I don't know if it will work for you, but it certainly works for us. I hope this answer brings some comfort to you.
John 14:15-18 - http://scriptures.lds.org/en/john/14/15-18#15
15 ¶ If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

Romans 8:28 -- And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Trust in the Lord...with all of your heart! And lean not upon your....own understanding, in all of your ways....acknowledge Him! And He will direct your path!
Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all things will (then be added to you).
Do not worry, saying, "what will we eat, what will we drink, what will we wear?". Consider the lilies of the field. Even Solomon, in all his glory, was not arrayed as one of these.
Consider the birds of the air. They neither reap nor sow, nor gather into barns. But your father in heaven feeds them. Are you not worth more than the sparrows?
Knock and it shall be opened. Seek and you will find, ask and it will be given to you.

James 1:3-Knowing this,that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
Just do the things you know are right,good and Godly;if you exercise patience,things will eventually get better.

Matthew 6:25- 34. I'd write the verses but its much better if you open up the Bible for yourself. :)

If you have younger children, you should try to raise them to be smart. Your daughter made her bed, now she has to sleep in it.
