Today I meet the folks in my major morning track. Pray the Lord would move mightily through us, that many would gain deep insight into their writing and hearts. Pray for sustaining strength for me and for protection as well. My prayer: Thank You Lord for the privilege of teaching others about words. What a […]

Mount Hermon Prayers, Day two
April 2, 2009

I’ll be spending one on one time with mentees today. Pray for stamina and strength and intelligence and direction. I want to be a vehicle of blessing to each person. Thanks so much.
Mount Hermon Prayers, Day one
April 1, 2009

Would you pray today for safe travel to Mount Hermon and a heart full of insight to give to those I’ll be mentoring the next two days? I would really appreciate it. I’ll be meeting with seven writers over 48 hours to help them hone and refine their nonfiction projects. In that, I’m also praying […]
Infectious skin diseases
February 22, 2009
So I’m reading through Leviticus right now and I’m stuck in the infectious skin disease cycle where it talks about the priests looking at everyone’s icky rashes and declaring them unclean or clean. It doesn’t seem like a fun job to me. (Maybe this is why I am not a dermatologist.) But then I read […]
Prayer for the day
February 4, 2009
Dear Jesus, I need You today. I need Your voice, Your touch, Your direction, Your inspiration. I lift up my writing life to You, letting You hold my words in the palm of Your hand. There are days when I feel small and incapable, when the worries stiffen my neck. Today is one of those […]
Well, wouldn’t you know it?
December 4, 2006
An accident. Today. Of all the days. Not Patrick’s fault, thankfully. And ol’ Bessy the brown station wagon did pretty well–just a license plate problem and a busted headlight. Patrick’s fine. But, geez! Why now???? Grrrrr. If you’re a praying person, pray that Bessy would sell–she’s a great gal and she needs a home. And […]
We are Moving Home
November 24, 2006
After much prayer and seeking guidance, Patrick and I have decided it was time to relocate back to the States. We will fly to Dallas on December 13th. On January 3rd Patrick will start a new job at UT Southwestern as the director of its vascular lab, and our children will start school. Please pray […]
a little nekkid
November 3, 2006
I posted today over at the Christian Author’s Network marketing blog. And, yes, I nekkified myself by exposing my pretty terrible Amazon ratings. As my friend Cec Murphey says, I need to lay down all that stuff, all the worries, all the fretting, and let Jesus manage my career. So, Jesus, take it all. Take […]
My Prayer for Today
October 26, 2006
Lisa helped me today, though she doesn’t know it. The prayer she posted at Author Intrusion gave words to my heart. It’s my prayer today.
Weeds
August 15, 2006
The first time I flew home to Texas, I wept. We’d been in the midst of turmoil on the field from every possible angle. I walked into church and couldn’t stop crying. I’d speak, get three or four words out and burst into tears. The Lord was gracious then to send me many, many friends […]
