Going Deeper

Hi everyone! My name is Joshua Roberts. For me it's hard to tell a story while I'm still in it I can atleast bring you up to date and from there you can follow me and the telling of a story. This is not the beginning but where WE pick up together. My intention for this blog is to allow my friends and family and anyone else who may wander into Sunken realms the chance to experience the undescribbable through my lens. To maybe learn more about the Nature of our origin. The character of our Creator. To glimpse the invisble hand in my life. All of this comes from a desire to know God and will mostly be vague...for now until I get a little deeper. This past year has been the most amazing year of my Life. Up until last year I had so many desires, to many really, no matter how much thought I put into somethig I just couldn't figure out how to approach the "rest of my life". I have always been drawn to something more something that breaks the surface of our perception. The only thing I could describe that place was my desire to know it, to explore it. Still, I lived my life unable put my finger on it. So many questions and life was bearing down on me what will I do with mine? Still nothing i was frozen and needed something but nothing satisfied, absolutely nothing quenched the thirst of my soul and I couldn't pursue anything without having a reason that came from that something more. Truth has always been my sail but to live by what is true you have to know what is True and i did not. I came to a breaking point early last year where thoughts of the God of the christian faith began to surface and it was those thoughts that resonated with something inside of me. I couldn't have had more reasons to doubt that belief and I was anything but ignorant of other beliefs and ideas. Then why was that thrist being quenched at the thought of it? There was a depth waitting to be explored that I had so foolishly closed the door to because of what the world said about it and what my understanding of it lead me to believe. Look deeper...past my perception, past the stereo types, past the un answered questions, past purely common sense or logic, look deeper...listen through a child's lense, that believes when everybody and everything else say different. Listen with wonder in your heart that maybe just maybe what you thought you knew could be completely wrong. I did...I wasn't frozen anymore. The thirst was being quenched and i couldn't get enough. Daily Going deeper, daily exchanging what I thought for an experience with the Uncreated the Origin of it all the Ultimate Story Teller. This changed my Life and released me into feeling more like myself then every before. The questions hung around for awhile but eventually that just weren't important and as for my perception of things I has just seen through the wrong lense and bleived what I saw rather than testing the waters and knowing. Now I believe that Jesus was God stepping into his creation. This may seem random but, it really is the foundation of who we are...Who I am and why I am doing what I'm doing.  I can't explain everything here but I know that Friends who will be reading this are people of many different beliefs and different places in their own life so I wanted to be clear in sharing my heart with all of you.

   So, what am I doing?

    Essentially i've become preoccupied by relationship with Jesus christ. Everything I do goes back to God I have nothing outside of my Creator. I am in a constant state of desire to know God deeper. So, what do you do? Well I move to australlia and attend the Deep End School of The Supernatural. The school is 9 months long. Full of lectures in underrstanding cultures, mindsets, and religions for the purpose of meeting people where they are and approaching them from a perspective of love and understanding ready to release all that God has poured into me. Combined with constant exploration of Heavenly places. I will be pouring into the community around me feeding the poor and creationg relationships...loving people and releasing all that I have experienced with Jesus. Who he is is all that i am and sharing that is all I want to do for the rest of my life. I have made all the preparations that I can and I am at a grand total of $1,200 dollars which will almost cover the plane ticket but I need atleast $5,000 to even apply for the visa that I'll need. For the entire school, living expenses, and travel fee's I need roughly $25,000.00 dollars...agian thats a rough,rounded estimate. However I am Going to be entering australlia by faith with little more than the cost of the first school payment which is $1,300.00 and then another $1,000 in July and then another $1000 by the end of the school. I will be able to work while I am there so I plan on finacing as much of this myself as possible but any help would be a huge blessing. If anyone feels in there heart the desire to support this trip financially, prayerfully, or are simply curious what in the world I am talking about please let me know. You can explore what the school is about more indepthly by visiting the Website I really could use any help or encourgment from you all. I believe this is a season of stepping into the calling on my life and by faith I'm stepping into it. Thank you everybody who has already blessed me so much! If you would like to support me financially, find the octopus helping me raise money and click on him.  The school starts at the beginning of March and I Still need to apply for a visa and buy a plane ticket but as soon as the funds are there I'll be on a plane to Australlia. You can support me anytime through out the school in whatever way you feel lead. I intend to keep you all very well updated on whats happening in my journey so check back in a few weeks for an update From the depths. Peace be with you all and Loads of Love! Radical Blessings!
