There's no one like our God, no one at ALL!

God is so far beyond amazing!!!!!! He's the same yesterday, today, and forever...but yet it always seems we are learning something new, something more about Him. One of the reasons He's so great. He never changes, yet there is SO much to discover about Him! His heart and love for us is a relentless type of love, how awesome is that!?! OH MAN I'm so excited just talking about Him.

Okay, so every Thursday morning we (a few of us from my church and other churches) go and pray at the Abortion Clinic. Yes, pray! We don't picket, we don't shout in people's faces, we love on them, weep for them, pray for them. We've found this route so much more effective. There is one clinic that is still operating in my town and for the past couple months we go there weekly (Thursdays is the only day they do abortions) to pray for the girls, the mothers, the babies, the workers, the fathers, etc..God is the same yesterday, today, forever. We believe that since He did miracles back then He can STILL and WILL still do miracles today.

And today was one of those days!!! =) There was only 4 of us out there today. But this girl was driving out of the parking lot area for the clinic and pulled up right beside us. She rolled down her window and asked what we were doing..she wanted to know if we were protesting. We told her we were praying. Her and a friend of hers were both in the car, and my friend Jessica told her we were praying for them, against abortion, against the murder, and for the children. The girl was stunned.
She then said she did NOT want to go through with the abortion!!!!!!!!! AHH PRAISE GOD! She asked what her options were. We informed her of adoption, how there's so many good families longing to adopt. We told her about the local crisis pregnancy centers, and the house of refuge. The church said they would help her out any way we could! Thank you so much God!She

then gave us her number and got hers, so we can keep in touch.

A life.

A baby.

A human.

Was saved today, all by the mircaulous work God did on this girl's heart! Wow!!! What a beautiful chance at life, hope was given today..and I'm so excited to see what God does in this girl's life, her familie's life and her childs!!! Be praying for her whenever you think about it please!!

Here's a few pictures from time's past when we've prayed down at the clinic. We use LIFE tape on occasion. Which is just representing that we are doing a silent seige and firmly standing for life. Losing our voice, lifting up prayers, for the babies.

Love
Ashley

13 going on 30

Helloooooooooo!!
Two days ago was so awesome. Ever since our church has started the challenge, it's been so aweosme. I love being on.."one accord" with everyone in our reading and prayer life, mega encouraging. God is beyond amazing and the way He works never ceases to amaze me!

Well I've been needed a haircut ...(more like a trim) for a while now. But I've been trying to grow my hair out...and still am. But my hairs been in this akward stage. So I went to this cute little salon on the other side of town to get my hair touched up. I made a bold move for ashley fragas........i got bangs! EEEEK! I know i know...bangs...crazy huh? hahaha it's really not that big of a deal...but since my blog is called
"Adventures with Ashley"
Everything has been turned into an adventure. haha!
I really like the way K.C. cut my hair and will probably go back to her sometime in the future. But I mean, I'm pretty set here with my mom and jessica both being hair stylists..so who knows.
Ha!Okay, Brooke, haha i know you're out there.. That sounds so stalker-ish. Well I said I would post a picture so here's one that I have so far. Say hello to your asian sister. Hahaha

It was so funny, the guy at the army checkpoint checked my i.d. card and then looked at me and he couldn't believe i was old enough to drive! HA! He asked if i was 13..i was like uhhhh no, im 18 sir. He laughed. I laughed. Neither of us cried lol. Then someone told me I looked way older..how crazy. lol
Love.Ashley...DOO DAH DOO!

Snow-Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay guys, so a few days it actually..*drumroll please*....SNOWED IN FAYETTEVILLE! =)

Those of you who have lived here for any amount of time, know that this is a huge and exciting event! It was so exciting! Oh man everyone was ecstatic that it not only snowed but we got maybe an inch or 1/2 and inch to STICK to the ground!

Yay! Thank you Jesus!

I'm telling you what, the angels were shaking their tail-feather's in frenzies or something...cause there was alot for fayetteville.

Here are some pictures from this amazing event! hah:

A year of "First's"

Okay, so this is officially my first blog here on this site. My mom and my sister both had one and I was feeling a little out of the loop, so I became a "follower" and got one too! Haha. I love reading their blogs so much I just jumped right in.

Hmm..So should I introduce myself? I have no idea what to do as my first blog, so that sounded like a good idea. haha

My name is Ashley.

I'm passionately in love with someone who is even more passionately in love with me! and you! And that person is Jesus! I'm living my life for Him and always learning, realizing, discovering something new about Him and His great works.

I have the most wonderful family in the world, galaxy, milky way, etc. Ha! My Dad is such a crazy awesome guy! My mom is so great spontaneous and amazing! I have the best sister, Brooke. Who lives, what seems, half a world away! But we talk basically daily, so I can't complain at all and I just thank God for the technology we have! I now have an awesome brother(-in-law), a gorgeous and fun niece, and a handsome little nephew, and a new nephew/niece on the way! YAY! =) I cannot wait! The best part is, they are all such men and women of God and express it in such unique ways!

I would be perfectly okay with just doing missions and worship and being with family for the rest of my life. For right now I am just staying where God is telling me to stay, and will go when and where He tells me to.

I love to have fun! Seriously, that is one of my main focuses in life. Child-like? Maybe. But I'm a little kid at heart. I love having a great time no matter where im at. I love being spontaneous and spontaneous people!

I also fight crime in alleways and save the world with a beautiful teal cape following close behind me. ha

Okay, so that's me in a nut shell..well minus the last part. But I'm still new to this blogspot thing. So I'll try and keep it updated as best as I can. God has blessed me so much with an awesome family, church, friends, etc. and He's blessing you daily! Smile and have a great day!

Love,
ashley
