In-laws and Jesus

Jeremy's parents have been with us for the last few days, and it has been great to have them around. They are great people and I am so lucky to have them as my in-laws! My mother in law and I have tested out my bread machine and figured out that it doesn't work that great when trying to bake bread in the machine itself. But, we did manage to get two yummy loaves cooked in the oven. My father in law has changed most of the old plug-ins in the house, taken down my air conditioner from the window upstairs, and took us to get my slow leek in my tire fixed "again". (I think I need new tires and rims; but a new car altogether would be nice. Just make sure it's bought IN Quebec). Now that most of the house work has been done, I'm praying that the sun comes out so that we can show them around this beautiful place we live in. (No, I didn't plan it that way!)

Although this week has been very nice, I have truly felt like I have been in the middle of a battle, spiritually. Some weeks ministry is harder than others. Some weeks people aren't exactly pleased with you. Some weeks you have to make decisions that are hard to make. I know it is part of the job: but seriously, does anyone like to be rejected and accused?

I suppose you'll answer, well Jesus was like that and so it comes back to my 'gah.. being like Jesus again!' I know I know...

So, if you are out there and reading this. Pray for me. Because, I need it. This battle is hard to fight and some weeks I don't feel strong enough to do it. This is one of those weeks.
