I really can relate with some of the things she is saying about uncontrolled emotions: "Without God's Intervention, we can only offer a small bandage to someone hemorrhaging from uncontrolled emotions. We may bring calm for a moment, but our efforts will have little lasting effect.
I have a family member who is dealing with alot of unresolved emotional baggage/mental issues, I would call it. I have tried to help and sometimes I have been received with open arms and then other times the door slammed in my face. I finally took it to the Lord and said, I have said and done all the encouraging I can muster. Please take this burden from me and help this person.
I felt a calm at that time. Things are getting out of control again and it is discouraging at times, but I have to let GOD handle it and pray for this person daily. After reading today's bible study I felt encouraged.
