My little soapbox

Jesus is the only way to the Source. I need to write that down and read it to myself. I just want to shout it from the rooftops today, or get on a soapbox and tell everyone. I just had a guy tell me that we're all trying to get to the Source, and that we can get there on our own.
"I've tried that," I responded. "It didn't work. I keep messing up, and it just pulls me into depression because I get so frustrated. I really need someone to carry me to God. That's why Jesus is the treasure of my heart and means everything to me, because I believe that He does just that."
"Jesus doesn't carry you to God. He's just another good prophet to look to as an example for how to live, but he can't actually take you to God. You just need to try harder," he said.

This is the theme of my heart and what I'll be proclaiming until the day I die, no matter what anyone says differently. Jesus means everything to me, and gives me the deepest and richest joy that I've ever known. That's my little soapbox speech for the day. :) Now I'm going to go back to Camden and hand out Bibles to people who come to the book table (NOT because it makes God love me more or helps me get to Him, but because He already broke through into my life and gave me real life, and I want to extend that to others now!). Just needed to do a bit of passionate shouting. Feel like I'm going to burst or something!
