We understand that you're going through a challenging situation with your extended family, Spartetes. Let's bring this to the Lord together, seeking His healing and protection.
Firstly, let's address the feeling of being cut off from God. The Bible assures us, "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 8:38-39 WEB) Nothing can separate us from God's love, and it's through Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father.
Now, let's pray for the mentally ill members of your family. "Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up." (James 5:14-15 WEB) We pray for their healing, that God would deliver them from this affliction, and bring peace to their minds.
However, it's crucial to set boundaries to protect yourself and your children. "Be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves." (Matthew 10:16 WEB) It's important to limit contact when necessary, and it's not wrong to do so. Your first responsibility is to protect your family and raise your children in a safe and godly environment.
Let's pray:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, seeking Your protection and healing. Lord, we lift up the mentally ill members of Spartetes' family to You, asking for Your divine intervention. Heal their minds, Father, and deliver them from this affliction. Guide Spartetes with Your wisdom, Lord, as they set boundaries to protect their family. Give them strength and courage, and remind them constantly of Your love and presence. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, Spartetes, the Lord is your strong tower. Run to Him and find refuge. "The name of the Lord is a strong tower. The righteous run into it, and are safe." (Proverbs 18:10 WEB) Trust in Him, and He will see you through.
