Sunday Prayer

Captain's Log, Stardate 03.30.2008

Leave any prayer requests in the comments and I’ll be praying this week. 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 or e-mail me. If I forgot your prayer request, email me. Not to be mean or anything, but if you don't email me or comment to update your prayer request, I'm only going to pray ONE Sunday.

I’m trying something new with my Sunday Prayer. I’m really bad about doing it on Sunday, so I’ll be updating it during the week.



Dear Lord, thank you for all you do for us.

I pray for complete healing for Malia, Helen, Kristy, Colleen, and Sharon.

I lift up Case and his family to you.

Be with Kristin, who just lost her Grandmother.

Be with Anonymous’s Masters program decision. Thank you for giving so many opportunities, but please give clear direction about where you want Anonymous to go. Please give comfort and assurance of your hand over everything.

Please heal my hip, and thank you for all you’ve done to heal it so far. Please also help me to finish all the things that need to be done. Please provide for our family financially. Guide my life, open and close doors, and lead me into what you want me to do.

Amen.

Camy, would you pray for my two sons who are going thru struggles with alcohol and life in general?
I would also like prayers for my husband who has heart disease and diabetes and has a hard time with it. Lastly, I need a prayer for myself that my faith stays strong as we go through our daily struggles in life.

God Bless You,
Sandra

Hi Camy,

I am new to your blog but saw the prayer request link and had to post a comment. I have a friend who was in a car accident almost 5 weeks ago. He is a 25 year old newlywed. We have clearly seen God work miracles in his life already. He is (finally, praise God!) taking breaths on his own with only help with pressure from his ventilator. However, they are beginning to wean him off of his pain medication as well as starting physical therapy. They are also planning to move him to a long term care facility so that he will be able to receive more physical and occupational therapy. Again, I stress that we have seen miracles in this situation and he and his family have never wavered in their faith. Please pray that in this transitional time that Neil's lungs will continue to heal, his broken leg will begin to heal and that the Lord will continue to bless him with the strength and patience that he will need to get through this. Also, a prayer for the family to remain strong in Christ. If you would like to read about Neil, you can visit his blog (his mother and sister are keeping all of us up to date this way!) at http://neilgrantham.blogspot.com.

Thanks so much!

Hi Camy,

I was recently tested for HIV and am still waiting for the results. Since I have been waiting, I have felt myself overcome with fear. I have been praying daily that I am healthy and my results will come back negative. If you could please keep me in your prayers, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you!

Camy (and anyone else reading!)

I ask for prayer for my pastor, Dick. He suffered a minor heart attack a few years ago and, thanks to bypass surgery, has been in wonderful health since. Lately, he's been having a few health issues and will be having tests this week to see what exactly is going on. I will be praying for him daily until he lets us know the results of the tests. Thank you for adding your prayers to mine and thank you so much for everything you do.

Chinese Take-Out and Sushi for One

Captain’s Log, Supplemental My agent sent me an article from Publisher’s Weekly that discussed this incident: Chinese Take-Out Spawns Christian Controversy And here’s also a blog post that talks about it in more detail: The Fighting 44s This is Soong-Chan Rah’s blog: The PCS blog In sum: Apparently Zondervan (yes, my publisher), who has partnered with Youth Specialties, had put out a youth leaders skit that had stereotypical Asian dialogue, which offended many Christian Asian Americans. In response to the outcry, Zondervan/Youth Specialities put out a sincere apology and is not only freezing the remaining stock of the book, but also reprinting it and replacing the copies people have already bought. I am very proud of my publisher for how they have handled this situation. The skit writers have also issued a public apology . (I feel sorry for them, because they were only trying to write a funny skit, not stir up this maelstrom of internet controversy. I’ve been in youth work long enou...

Toilet seat cover

Captain’s Log, Supplemental Update August 2008: I wrote up the pattern for this with "improvements"! Here's the link to my No Cold Bums toilet seat cover ! Okay, remember a few days ago I was complaining about the cold toilet seat in my bathroom? Well, I decided to knit a seat cover. Not a lid cover, but a seat cover. I went online and couldn’t find anything for the seat, just one pattern for the lid by Feminitz.com . However, I took her pattern for the inside edge of the lid cover and modified it to make a seat cover. Here it is! It’s really ugly stitch-wise because originally I made it too small and had to extend it a couple inches on each side. I figured I’d be the one staring at it, so who cared if the extension wasn’t perfectly invisible? I used acrylic yarn since, well, that’s what I had, and also because it’s easy to wash. I’ll probably have to wash this cover every week or so, but it’s easy to take off—I made ties which you can see near the back of the seat. And...

No Cold Bums toilet seat cover

Captain's Log, Stardate 08.22.2008 I actually wrote out my pattern! I was getting a lot of hits on my infamous toilet seat cover , and I wanted to make a new one with “improvements,” so I paid attention and wrote things down as I made the new one. This was originally based off the Potty Mouth toilet cover , but I altered it to fit over the seat instead of the lid. Yarn: any worsted weight yarn, about 120 yards (this is a really tight number, I used exactly 118 yards. My suggestion is to make sure you have about 130 yards.) I suggest using acrylic yarn because you’re going to be washing this often. Needle: I used US 8, but you can use whatever needle size is recommended by the yarn you’re using. Gauge: Not that important. Mine was 4 sts/1 inch in garter stitch. 6 buttons (I used some leftover shell buttons I had in my stash) tapestry needle Crochet hook (optional) Cover: Using a provisional cast on, cast on 12 stitches. Work in garter st until liner measures...

Brainstorm - character occupation

Captain's Log, Stardate 03.23.2009 Hey guys, I could use some help. In my current manuscript, The Year of the Dog , which is a humorous contemporary romance, I have a minor character, Eddie. He’s my heroine’s ex-boyfriend, and they’re on good terms with each other. He’s a bit irresponsible, but not so much so that he’s a complete loser. He’s got a very easy going attitude, he forgets to pay his bills sometimes, he’s friendly and charming. He’s adventurous and fun to be around, but he’s a little forgetful sometimes, and he tends to spend a little outside his income. I need an occupation for him. What would a charming, easy going, slightly irresponsible guy do for a living? He’s not too irresponsible, because otherwise readers will wonder what in the world my heroine saw in him to date him in the first place. She was attracted to his charm, his easy going attitude (her family’s uptight, and he was a nice contrast), and his adventurousness. But his forgetfulness and irresponsibility ...
