Me Too

I've been reading Rob Bell's book, Jesus Wants to Save Christians, and this caught my attention.

Me Too.
When you're struggling,
when you're hurting,
wounded, limping, doubting,
questoning, barely hanging on,
moments away from another relapse,
and somebody can identify with you-
someone knows the temptations that are at your door,
somebody has felt the pain that you are feeling,
when someone can look you in the eye and say, "Me too,"
and they actually mean it-
it can save you.

When you aren't judged,
or lectured,
or looked down upon,
but somebody demonstrates that they get it,
that they know what it's like,
that you're aren't alone,
that's "me too".
