I can't find any candles and don't wish to ask for some given the weather (it's kinda hot here) and the circumstances. But, I ask for prayer and light for me so that I do not lose my temper with my brother-in-law. He is being difficult and controlling with regards to my going to the doctor's with my sister on Monday. He got in the way of my niece going, and now, by saying that he will not go (and therefore, not help translate) if I go because "three people are too many." And, the doc will feel insulted because she does not speak English (even against the argument that medical terminology is universally in Latin ... ). Anyway, I've put myself in my room so that I won't scream at him and say to him what I really think.
All of this is to say, I need prayer for patience and guidance on how to deal with a person whom I only tolerate because he is my sister's husband. This is one place where I know such pleas will be answered. I promise that, despite what I feel, I won't kill him!
