I just
watched the news story about your son and it brought tears to my eyes.
Know that your son is in my prayers. You can't imagine how many people
across the nation visit these websites and pray everyday for these
children. I live in Memphis, just a few miles from St. Jude and the
Target House, and it's amazing to see the miracles that happen everyday
there. God Bless.

I pray
daily for a reduction of fear and for you to hear God's direction
clearly. Not only are you fighting vigilantly for Ben, but you are also
fighting for the friends you've made. The burden is heavy, but not too
heavy for God. I pray that you sense joy today!

Tom &
Jennifer: Ben is on hearts today and prayers have been said. Our heart
thought today however is for you. Luke 6:38 says,'give and it shall be
given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running
over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye
mete withal, it shall be measured to you again.' You have given
encouragement and hope, spiritual and financial support to so many
families, reached out a hand to so many, ministered in incredible ways.
You must know that it will all be given back to you, pressed down,
shaken, and running over. You're sowing seeds for a great harvest.
Standing with you, T&N

HE MAKETH
NO MISTAKE My Father’s way may twist and turn, My heart may throb and
ache, But in my soul I’m glad I know He maketh no mistake. My cherished
plans may go astray, My hopes may fade away, But still I’ll trust my
Lord to lead For He doth know the way. Tho’ night be dark and it may
seem That day will never break; I'll pin my faith, my all in Him. He
maketh no mistake. There’s so much now I cannot see, My eyesight’s far
too dim. But come what may, I’ll simply trust And leave it all to Him.
For by and by the mist will lift And plain it all He’ll make. Through
all the way, tho’ dark to me, He made not one mistake. —Author Unknown
to me May God hold you in His Loving Arms. Prayers are with you, vicky

Your
family is in my prayers daily. You have touched my life so much. I want
to help your family anyway that I can. I am waiting to hear back on the
info for Ben & Eli's activity box - I hope to get my work group to
sponsor a month. My friend, Eileen, is a Eucharist Minister at St. Jude.
She has inspired me to take the Eucharist Minister class, so that I may
be able to help everyone at St. Jude also. Please let me know if I can
help in anyway. I am only a few minutes away! My thoughts are prayers
are with you. Step Tagg

Ben, you
have been such an inspiration to me. I have three children and I have
developed a brand new love for them after reading your story. You are a
BEAUTIFUL young boy who has the most intoxicating smile. I looked at
your photo album and tears came to my eyes at the pure joy that I see in
your heart. God is working miracles inside you and through you. I pray
for you constantly each day for healing, peace, hope, love and more
smiles! You are a wonderful person whom I've never met, but I love you
and your entire family. You have a wonderful family and a great, big
brother, Eli. Wow, you are quite blessed to have all of them. I will
continue to pray for you and will try to send some money for you and
your family. Keep smiling beautiful boy! In Christ, Crystal Perkins :)

Prayers
to your family from our family here in Nebraska. We pray that the next
set of scans shows the tumor reducing in size and Ben winning this
fight. We just had a baby and named him Ben - he is our third boy and as
with the others, a pure delight. Nothing more precious than boys. I hate
to hear of new stories of parents having to walk down the path of
childhood cancer - our son, by some sort of miracle, has won his fight
against Ewing's Sarcoma of his skull so far and we will pray for the
same for your little Ben. Just keep swimming!

Ps.

he viewed the earth, 20.to hear the groans...and release those condemned
to death." 21.So the name of the Lord will be declared in Zion and his
praise in Jerusalem 22.when the peoples and the kingdoms assemble to
worship the Lord.

HAPPY 4TH
OF JULY BOWENS! Hope Ben's counts are up and you are able to go see the
fireworks! We're getting ready for Sunday School and I will ask everyone
to have a special time of prayer for Ben's counts this morning. We have
fireworks scheduled for tonight in Barboursville, but lots of rain
expected today, so don't know if they'll get to have them or not. Just
thought I'd give you a Sunday Morning update from Huntington. Give Big
Ben a hug from all of us. You remain wrapped in His arms, Mary Ann
