Sunday Prayer

Captain's Log, Stardate 07.26.2009

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 grace.

I pray for complete healing for B., Malia, Cheryl, Sharon, Juanita, Lorna, Dr. Mathews, and Steve’s mom.

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

Be with any blog readers who are out of a job or whose loved ones are unemployed. Please provide for their families and give stability.

I pray for complete healing for Becky and wisdom for her and her doctors. Support her and give her your peace.

I pray for complete healing for Stacey's mother Barb. Please help all the treatments go smoothly without too much pain or discomfort. Please let all these things lead her to you. Also, be with her brother Brian and his test results. We pray for your will.

Be with Buddy B. and help his surgery to go smoothly and quickly. Help him recover in no time.

Please help Kristin sell her house quickly and soon. I pray the secondary offer will come through and the house will be sold by next weekend.

Thank you for protecting Erin and her father. Help her to be able to get back behind the wheel again with a seasoned instructor who can teach her how to drive safely. Also, please help them to sell their house so they can buy their dream property.

Be with Sasafras to help her find a job quickly. Also please heal her horse and help her get back to 100% soon.

I lift up Honey's family to you and pray for you to help them deepen their relationships with you so you can ease their stress. Help them to fully surrender to you.

Please give complete healing to John's wife Karen. Touch her body and mind. Also give comfort to his pastor friend Gary through all the struggles he's going through.

Lay your hand over Suzy's daughter and new son-in-law. Bless their marriage and forge strong bonds between them and their new in-laws. Protect them from spiritual warfare and help them to rely completely on you.

Thank you for guiding Captain Caffeine's job direction. Please help me continue with my weight loss and running training. Please also help me and guide me as I work on my new proposals. Guide my life, open and close doors, and lead me into what you want me to do.

Amen.

Please pray for me. I have my driving permit, but when my Dad started trying to teach me himself without really knowing how to go about, we both ended up making a mistake, driving on a highway before I was ready, and crashed. Thankfully, God protected us, but please pray that God will help me to get back behind the wheel, but with an instructor who has experience in teaching, and that he'll help me to be a safe and careful driver for everyone in the car with me and everyone else around me.

Please pray that God will give me a job, and if it's His Will, before Christmas.

Please also pray that he'll help my horse to gain back some weight she lost in the beginning of this summer.

Thanks so much for this, Camy. Sometimes, you feel a little easier asking someone you've never met but kinda know to pray for something. I know God will bless you for trying to be an example and a encouragement and help for all of us.

I agree with Sasafras. I pray that God will bless you too.

Please pray for God to intervene in my family. Even though I live in a Christian home, several of my family don't seem to really care how their relationship with God is past the necessaries. This, and some other problems they and I are struggling with cause a lot of stress.

Thanks!

Forget to mention; MJ, I'll be praying for your friends too.

Oh, I've got one more prayer request, if you could, Camy. We really want property, and we've found the perfect place. We really couldn't do better, I don't think. But in order to be able to buy it, we have to sell our current house. My parents seem to have pretty much given up. So, please pray that if it's God's Will, he'll have someone offer to buy our house, and if it's His Will, that we'll be able to buy that property.

Thanks you so much!

I've got an update on my horse. Thanks for all your prayers for her health. It rained for almost 2 whole days last week, so that should help quite a bit towards getting her back towards 100%

However, I'm looking at starting college this fall, and my parents and I are concerned about what to do with Sas (my mare). We board her, and with me at college it would cost a lot more and I wouldn't be able to give her the attention she needs. My parents are kinda pushing me towards selling her, but I'm not sure. I love her so much, and I want to keep her, but I also want the best for her. I really need to know God's Will about this, so could you please pray that He'd show me and that I'd know without a doubt that it's from Him? And that He'll help me whatever the decision?

Thanks!

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 ...

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...

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 ...

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 GOT A CONTRACT!

Captain’s Log, Stardate 03.29.2006 I had a wonderfully funny blog post planned for today, but I got sidetracked by some news yesterday! Zondervan has offered me a three-book contract on my Asian chick-lit series ! I’m still stunned by everything that’s happened. The series is actually a 4-book projected Asian chick-lit series about four cousins who fall under the infamous family title "Oldest Single Female Cousin," and their ruthless, wealthy grandma applies pressure on each of them to improve their lack of love interests. I think the first book is tentatively scheduled to be released in August 2007. The blurb on the series is on my website here . Brandilyn Collins posted to the ACFW loop about my writing journey, and Tamara Cooper asked that I share it. And since you all know how much I like to talk , here it is. My writing journey: Like most writers, I have wanted to write since I was very young. (In high school, I wrote a fantasy novel that will never see the light of day ...
