Sunday prayer

Captain’s Log, Stardate 12.04.2005

I’ll continue Mary Griffith’s blog tour tomorrow with an excerpt from MADE OF HONOR.

I missed church today because my husband is sick and my leg is still too delicate for me to go out. So how about Sunday prayer?

Anybody have prayer requests? Leave them in the comments and I’ll be praying this week.

This isn’t to sound Holier-Than-Thou or anything like that. I don’t have very reverent prayers sometimes, but I do believe in the power of prayer to my powerful Lord.

You don’t have to be Christian to leave a prayer request. If you’d rather not advertise to everyone on the blogosphere, just leave an unspoken prayer request.

For me, my upper back has been killing me because I’m so uneven from not being able to put my full weight on one leg.

I’m also going to add Squirl’s missions trip to India during the month of December, Pammer’s disappearing time, Heather’s new book projects, Dineen's distracted writing time, and a plug for a laptop for Robin.

Anybody else? If I don't mention you, it's only cuz I don't know what to pray about for you, or if you want your prayer requests mentioned publicly.

Lord God, I praise you for today, for your glory over all the earth. Thank you for your grace over us. Thanks that my post-op recovery has been going so well. Thanks for Dineen being able to drive me to PT. Thanks for the work the Story Sensei has gotten recently.

Please be preparing Squirl for her trip, in her heart, mind, and body. Watch over her family, and help her not to worry, but to trust you to have your hand over them.

Help Pammer continue to write for your glory. We pray against any feelings of inadequacy and distractions. Help her to keep moving forward and stop rewriting chapter one!

Thank you for speaking to Heather about future direction in her writing. Continue to lead and guide her. Give her your strength to do what you want her to do.

Help Dineen focus during her writing time with you. I pray against any spiritual warfare going on in her household.

You know I want your will over any of ours, but if you can see to it, please help Robin somehow get a laptop for her writing.

Please heal my back so that I don’t have pain or discomfort any more. Please enable me to get to the chiropractor.

Thanks for all my friends in the blogosphere. Amen.

Amen. And if you are in the mood for a post script, please pray for my book to be seen by the right publisher. Also pray that God will direct my husband into the right ministry job. Thank you!

Awwwwwwwwww! (no cyber fuzzy wuzzy)

Thank you so much Camy! You are such a blessing to me.

Praying for your back still!

Love you!!
Pammer said…
Amen! Thank you so much, I am humbled by the gift of your sweet prayer.

BTW, I stopped rewriting Chapter one ages ago, now I'm stuck on chapter two. :0 Joking, I am moving forward again. (Maybe has something to do with your faithful prayers.)
Hugs to you. Love ya!

Oh I nearly forgot, could you pray for Jules? The mammogram showed two masses one on each side and the one in the right side is the size of a quarter and solid. Pray that it is not cancerous. Thanks again.

Window shopping

Captain’s Log, Stardate 03.14.2005 Knee update: I went to the doctor today for a checkup, and saw his assistant. I’ve been concerned because there’s still inflammation in my knee joint, and it’s been almost 4 months since the surgery. She said she’d talk to the doctor about it tomorrow and call me. Sometimes he suggests laying off the PT to see if that causes the inflammation to go away, but I don’t know if that will work because lately I’ve been pretty active outside of PT. At PT today, the therapist did ultrasound and some sort of electrical current on the joint. Hopefully that will make the inflammation start to go down. I’ll know by tomorrow, probably. Writing: Mt. Hermon conference starts this Friday! On Thursday night, I’ll be at the Santana Row Borders bookstore to help out (and hopefully learn a bit, too) at a booksigning for several of the ACFW authors who are attending Mt. Hermon . That should be lots of fun. I had a good brainstorming time at ...

New book idea a la Captain Caffeine

Captain's Log, Stardate 04.14.2009 So my husband, Captain Caffeine, had lunch with a few friends a few days ago. And they asked about my writing, and if I’d been on Oprah yet. (Yeah, right) They then discussed NYT bestselling books, and why can’t Camy write a NYT bestseller. (Sure, let me just open a vein over a blank page and it’ll come right out.) So Captain Caffeine came home with ideas for my new NYT bestselling novel. First it starts with vampires, because Twilight is so hot. But not just any vampires. This one’s an Amish vampire. And he’s not just an Amish vampire, he’s a cop in disguise, infiltrating the Amish community to protect a witness. (Hmm, that storyline sounds familiar ...) But wait! There’s more! To add more conflict and stick with my brand of Asian fiction, we introduce the Tibetan monk! Who joins the Amish community to get away from the pressures of monkhood. But in reality, he’s protecting the Chinese princess on the run, trying to escape from her father’s Hong...

Japanese language learning process in more detail

I blogged a few weeks ago that I’ve jumped back into my Japanese language learning after being lazy and letting it slide. I’ve been keeping my Japanese language study habit for about a month now, and I wanted to blog about my process in more detail. One thing I had noticed about my Japanese is that I tended not to do it if I left it to do at the end of the day. I realized that it was just like my exercise—if I didn’t do it first thing in the morning, it never got done. So I started doing my Japanese right after my exercise in the morning. I treated it like one of my “frogs,” as I read about in the book Eat That Frog!: 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get More Done in Less Time . The book is based off of a Mark Twain quote: “Eat a live frog first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.” It suggests doing your “frogs”—your important things that you’re likely to procrastinate doing—first thing in the morning in order to get it done, and ...

I sold to Steeple Hill!

Captain's Log, Supplemental Remember that romantic suspense proposal I blogged about earlier? Well, it just sold to Steeple Hill’s Love Inspired Suspense line! I am so jazzed! I am beyond jazzed! The story’s working title is Sinister Spa The story's title is Deadly Intent and here’s a blurb (but it’s probably not what will appear on the back of the book): Massage therapist Naomi Grant could use a massage herself. With her father at home recovering from a stroke, Naomi is put in charge of the family’s elite day spa in Sonoma county. The new responsibilities sit awkwardly on her shoulders, and things only get worse when handsome Dr. Devon Knightley breezes into the spa, demanding to see one of the female clients. And the woman is found dead in Naomi’s massage room. Suddenly, Naomi is a suspect and her family’s spa is shut down. How could God let this awful thing happen? Devon only needed to see his ex-wife about a family necklace she still hadn’t returned, but when she dies and...

Grace Livingston Hill romances free to read online

I wanted to update my old post on Grace Livingston Hill romances because now there are tons more options for you to be able to read her books for free online! I’m a huge Grace Livingston Hill fan. Granted, not all her books resonate with me, but there are a few that I absolutely love, like The Enchanted Barn and Crimson Roses . And the best part is that she wrote over 100 books and I haven’t yet read them all! When I have time, I like to dive into a new GLH novel. I like the fact that most of them are romances, and I especially appreciate that they all have strong Christian themes. Occasionally the Christian content is a little heavy-handed for my taste, but it’s so interesting to see what the Christian faith was like in the early part of the 20th century. These books are often Cinderella-type stories or A Little Princess (Frances Hodgson Burnett) type stories, which I love. And the best part is that they’re all set in the early 1900s, so the time period is absolutely fasci...
