Sunday Prayer

Captain's Log, Stardate 08.03.2008

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 your power.

I pray for complete healing for Malia, Helen, Cheryl, and Sharon.

I also lift up any of my blog readers in need of physical, emotional, or spiritual healing and pray you will touch them.

I lift up Case and his family to you.

I lift up Caitlin to you and pray she got the job. I pray you have directed everything and that everything will turn out for her good. Help her to trust you and stay close to you and your will for her.

I pray for healing for Tamelia’s mom, for remission of the cancer and not too bad side effects of the chemo. Also give Tamelia strength during this time.

I pray for healing for Christi’s dad, for wisdom for the family and doctors, and a successful surgery if that ends up happening.

Please wrap your arms around Melissa right now. I pray for healing for her mom but also your power, wisdom, and comfort for Melissa. You are good, gracious God. Let her know you are always with her.

Thank you for my new contract! I pray for your will for Captain Caffeine’s job direction. Please provide for our family financially. Guide my life, open and close doors, and lead me into what you want me to do.

Amen.

Please pray for my dad. He has an aortic aneursysm in the thorasic region that needs to be operated on. In order for them to operate, it would have to be Open Heart Surgery. Right now, we're waiting and praying and not scheduling surgery, but probably will do so after Christmas. Thank you!

Hi, Camy. I've asked for pray for my mom before. I just found out last week that her cancer has "upgraded". She now has stage 4. The doctor's never told us that it upgraded. Hospice has been involved for a little over a month. I found this information out from the Hospice nurse. I believe I'm the only one who knows. I don't think it would be right to tell anyone, especially my mom, unless they ask. My mom, Trudi, still isn't eating well. Nothing sounds good or she's nauseous. I suggest 20+ things and nothing sounds good. It's so hard. Now, she's on methadone. I'm so, so sad. I ask for her healing. I just fear and rejoice for her that it may happen by God calling her home to be with Him. It will truly be the worst day in my life and the best in hers. I don't want her to go so badly, but at the same time, I know she'd be better off. I can't even imagine life without her.

Please pray for her and the rest of us. Thank you so much for listening and for praying. Keep serving Jesus to the fullest. May God richly bless you because of it.

- Melissa

Lord, Thank you for your divine guildance and connections. Bring us a clean and responsible renter for our house at your right time. Lead us to the house you have chosen for us in the community that will enrich and encourage your little children in Christ. You know my needs for community and friendship. I am trusting you to workout all things in your greater glory.
Thank you for my husband and the wonderful marriage you have given me. Motivate our hearts and bodies to live healthy lives by eating properly and exercizing together as a family at night.
Thank you for vision and inspiration. Lord, you give me so many passionate ideas that require organization and an army of people to carry out. I believe you have great purposes to achieve through me and my family. I pray that I do not get in the way of myself by acting on inspirations that are selfserving or not inspired by you. I pray that you will gently remind me to stay on task, please let me mark off things on the list. Meet the financial needs of our family. And Lord if you can miraculously give me the time to write books and get a Masters degree and be the excellent wife and mother after you have relocated us to the right neighborhood while serving you that would be an abundant blessing. Thank you for praying with me.

Oh also Lord my friend Dana still longs for another baby. Heal her insides and make your blessing known.

I have a friend who just last week found out her 8mo old daughter has 3 tumors in her right kidney and 2 spots on her left kidney. She started chemo on Thursday and will continue on it once a week for 6 wks. Then she will have surgery to remove her right kidney. That will then be followed by 22 wks more chemo. Please pray for this baby girl and her family. I can't even begin to imagine what they must be going through.

Thanks, Camy. (hugs)

Hi Camy, I would love prayer for saftey in travel while I am taking a group of 7 people from Canada to Mexico for 2 weeks to a very remote village where we have been brining food for the past year. We are going to start work on building a church so that we can bring them the gosple and feed their souls as well as their stomachs. It is about a 6 hour drive from any thing else so saftey and good health are a big concern. Thanks for the prayers. I will let you know how it goes when I get back :)

Michael’s Scarf knitting pattern

Michael’s Gray and Brown Scarf I had just written a scene in Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 5: Prisoner where my character Michael gives the heroine a very significant scarf. When looking for a stitch pattern, I found the one used in “#31 Comfort either for a Lady or Gentleman” in The Lady's Assistant , volume 2 , published in 1842 by Mrs. Jane Gaugain, pages 125-126 (click on the link to view and/or download the free PDF of the digitally scanned book). When I did test swatches, it turned out to be a pretty eyelet pattern that looks like branches or vines winding upward. I tried the pattern as a parallelogram scarf and discovered that the pattern has a changeable orientation, looking vertical or diagonal depending on how you looked at it. So I decided to use this pattern, knitted as a parallelogram, as Michael’s scarf. I decided to use a smaller needle and add a slip stitch in the pattern to make the eyelets a bit more close and less lacy. When paired with a brown an

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

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

Tabi socks, part deux

Captain's Log, Stardate 07.25.2008 (If you're on Ravelry, friend me! I'm camytang.) I made tabi socks again! (At the bottom of the pattern is the calculation for the toe split if you're not using the same weight yarn that I did for this pattern (fingering). I also give an example from when I used worsted weight yarn with this pattern.) I used Opal yarn, Petticoat colorway. It’s a finer yarn than my last pair of tabi socks, so I altered the pattern a bit. Okay, so here’s my first foray into giving a knitting pattern. Camy’s top-down Tabi Socks I’m assuming you already know the basics of knitting socks. If you’re a beginner, here are some great tutorials: Socks 101 How to Knit Socks The Sock Knitter’s Companion A video of turning the heel Sock Knitting Tips Yarn: I have used both fingering weight and worsted weight yarn with this pattern. You just change the number of cast on stitches according to your gauge and the circumference of your ankle. Th

Hosea 14:2

Lord Jesus, Thank You that we can freely come directly to You and pray to You. Thank You that You died for our sins on the cross and we can be forgiven. “Forgive all our sins and receive us graciously, that we may offer the fruit of our lips.” We praise and thank You, Lord, for how wonderful You are. We lift our hearts to You in praise today. Amen 主イエスよ、私たちが自由にあなたに直接近づき、あなたに祈ることができることを感謝します。あなたが十字架で私たちの罪のために死んでくださり、私たちが赦されることを感謝します。「私たちのすべての罪を赦し、私たちを慈しみ深く受け入れてください。」主よ、あなたがどんなに素晴らしい方であるかを賛美し、感謝します。私たちは今日、賛美のうちにあなたに心を捧げます。 アーメン

Keriah's Narrow Crescent Scarf

In my series Lady Wynwood’s Spies, my character Keriah is more emotional than her friend Phoebe, and so when writing about her in Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 6: Martyr , naturally I described her scarf as having more lively colors than the greens and blues that Phoebe favors. I didn’t really have a particular yarn colorway in mind when I wrote the scene, but when looking through my stash to knit her scarf, I found the Carnival colorway in Knit Picks Chroma Twist Fingering, and it was absolutely perfect for her. Chroma Twist Fingering is discontinued, but you could knit this in Chroma Fingering or any other color-transitional yarn. In the Regency era, a tri-color 3-ply yarn like Chroma Twist Fingering would probably not have been sold in shops, but it also may not have been completely unheard of. It is made by simply dying the wool rather than the finished yarn, and then the dyed wool would be split into 3 parts and each part spun into a single ply, before all three plies
