Me too

We are all struggling. We struggle to manage...to cope...to deal...with guilt and shame and sin.

We hide. We hide away...isolate...despair.

We don’t want to be a burden. So, we pretend...we get busy...we put on our mask.

All alone...suffering...breaking.

Yet, we were not created to walk this walk alone. There is such hope and joy in a couple of simple words from a friend: "me too". There’s the start of healing in those words. Be a blessing and allow yourself to be blessed by those words and a relationship that gets you through the struggles and challenges of life.

"Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble. Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each other warm. But how can one be warm alone? A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken." Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

Keep building your relationships. Seek out that treasured individual or two you can truly trust and whose counsel is Biblical and heart nurturing. Reach out to a friend or two and be the change you want to see in your own life in others’.

Press in and press on,
Giselle
