The head of an insane asylum for the inebriate in New York testified that those who were sent there by their relatives or neighbors or by the state simply to get rid of them and to restrict their liberties never recovered. The ones who recovered were those who had some loved one, father or mother, or wife or child, or sister, praying for them. Suffering love has the power to restore. So the suffering love of God in Christ can restore the sinner.
Questions:
Tell a story of when you visited someone in a mental institution.
What were the struggles that person had?
Did he have someone to help, care and pray for him?
How is there still stigma about mental illness?
