god is funny like that.
laziness.
i am super lazy. those of you who know me are nodding. after getting to college i didn’t have many plans to stay in touch with people. no offense. it just seemed too hasslesome. so i pretty much just talked to people when they called me or when i went home and saw them at church. i really didn’t think that was a problem. at urbana, sorry i keep talking about it but God really taught me a lot here, God showed me all the people that i had hurt by cutting off communication with them. i tried to bargain with God arguing that they had other people in their lives and that it was too hard to keep track of them, but God would not stand for it. i guess first semester i could have considered myself in a spiritual rut. i had been in them before but usually they were because of serving too much without God in mind or just losing passion for a relationship with God. first semester i didn’t really get where this rut came from. i went to intervarsity. i hung out with my christian friends from time to time. everything seemed close to normal. at first i thought ok maybe its because i am surrounded by nonchristians and God wants me to leave this community, but God assured me that i had been surrounding myself with christians all my life and that wasn’t the way to pursue people for the kingdom of God. in the prayer room at urbana, i love prayer rooms!, God finally told me what he wanted me to do. but i didn’t want to hear it. well after much pursuing i finally gave into God’s demands. and much love has been found.
addictions.
Hello my name is Ashley Lai, and I’m a TV-aholic.
it’s true. i watch too much TV for my own good. i have been confronted by my friends many times for my addiction, but i usually quickly brushed off their concerns. so goal to watch less TV starting next semester, since there aren’t any new episodes in the summer. a more definite goal to come…
tumblrs.
like ivy i also like reading peoples tumblrs because its like a little window into peoples hearts. but advice to all and myself, don’t let tumblr be a substitute for real conversations. on that note, yes if you see something on my tumblr you like, dislike, agree with, disagree with, or have questions about, please feel free to ask. i won’t think you are a creeper/stalker :D.
