let me start of by saying this, i was told via my patriarchal blessing that i was told that my i would not need worry about paying for my mission, and as the day comes near that i am going to put in my papers i am told that i truly don't need to worry, i feel so blessed in this manner, three people who i know have prayed and they have decided to help me by donating a hundred dollars a month, to my mission.
i feel incredibly blessed, and it i couldn't have come at a better time, you see i had previously chosen that on January 31 that i put in my papers for immediate service, and i recently have become worried about my family and how they are going to support themselves while i am away if they are paying for it. and it soothes my soul and lifts a weight off of my mind to know that i need not worry. that i am on the right path. i feel very strongly that i am able to put my faith in god, that he will calm my mind, and let me know that i am loved, what strikes me so much and not just by god, i had no idea that people cared for me as much as they do. that they want to see me succeed and do what is right, i just feel such joy and love from everyone i cant help but smile, i know that i can never repay them or god for the love they have shown me. and for all you peeps out there, i would like to quote a scripture, "trust in the lord with all thy heart and lean not into thy own understanding, in all thy way acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths" i testify that this is true with great conviction that if you trust him he will guide you, adieu.

Hello Interwebs! My Name is Joshua
So Ive had this account for some time and haven't ever really used it so i will begin to day the day after my youngest sisters birthday, im a little nervous so i wont ramble for long, i feel it very difficult to pretend like im talking to someone when i know no one is going to read this until much later, and i find it absolutely terrifying to put something out into the world for every one to read, and there are so many ideas that i would like to share before i go away for two years, serving a mission for the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. and to any one who reads this i will never apologize for not posting at least twice a week no matter how big of a fan base this blog gets. why because i don't want to fill up my blog posts with a simple apology's for not posting.
Now for the mission statement, this blog is for my own record of inspiration i receive while about my daily business of preparing to serve a full time mission and also what is going through my mind of spiritual topics.also im am writing a book for my own personal goal and also with a group of friends.
i don't feel comfortable talking about somethings at this time but i will in the future, but do not dismay. for the lord thy god is with thee,
(i don't know why i put that it just felt comfortable)
