I am so
sorry that you are hurting little man. I wish that I could take it all
away from you. What a precious little boy you are. I will keep praying
for you and your family honey. Love to you all.

Dear Ben,
My heart just sunk to the pit of my stomach when I read about your
condition at this time. I could hardly bare to read... but I know
reading is easy... and what is happening now to you is not. I pray for
you for peace, and a mircle. If not a mircle... I just pray for rest and
peace for you little one. You are by far the most incredible little boy
I have layed eyes upon. As for your family Ben I pray for them also. As
I have kept good watch on this website each day...everyday.. I prayed
for your mircle. I'm still praying...lets see your Big Ben smile shine
through... we love you Ben...I love you...God LOVES you...

In every
thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be
made known unto God, and the peace of God which passes all understanding
shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. May this
indescribable peace settle over your home today, sink down into each of
your hearts, and spread like a blanket over Big Ben. None of us truly
'know' what your days consist of now, but our God knows. He knows the
one who has come to steal, kill, and destroy, but that one will never be
victorious. Ben will be the victor - he's already been declared more
than a conqueror.Webster says that means to gain, acquire and overcome
by force of arms; to gain mastery over or win by overcoming obstacles or
opposition - to overcome by mental or moral power.God's Word says Ben is
the heavy-weight champ, No. 1 in the world - there's no weapon that can
prosper against him. Ben's already been declared the champion. We love
you all, T&N

You are
constantly in my prayers. "The Lord will give (unyielding and
impenetrable) strength to Ben, Jennifer, Tom and Eli; the Lord will
bless Ben, Jennifer, Tom and Eli with peace" Psalms 29:11.

Sweet
Ben, you continue to tolerate this incredible act of injustice with such
grace and love! You and your mommy and daddy and Eli are in my thoughts
and prayers several times a day. If all the people praying for you could
take just one second of your pain away, you would be feeling nothing but
good. Congratulations on all the money you have raised for your friends
at St. Jude's! Your legacy will be children who don't have to endure
this nasty disease. You and your family are my heroes.

My heart
breaks for your family, but you are always in my daily prayers. I sent
an email with a link to your website to all the people in my address
book. I wanted you to have as much prayer as possible. I pray for some
rest for your family, and for God to take Ben's pain away however he
sees fit.

Oh
Ben...I am so sorry you're in so much pain, baby. I swear, if I could I
would take it all on myself so you could be pain free. Oh how my heart
is aching for you-I'm in tears at work thinking about your gorgeous
face. I will continue to ask, beg and pray to God that he help you with
this pain. No child, big or small should ever have to endure such pain.
I love you, Ben Bowen...You have forever changed my life Love, Hugs, and
Prayers, Megan

i want to
say a very big Thank YOU for the Bowen family because they made me
realise how we can handle our problems in better way when we share these
problems with God and let Him do the decisions for us. BIG BEN we are

Tom &
Jennifer, We continue to pray. I wish I had just the right words to
share my heart. I am so broken and so humbled by just reading your site.
If I care so much for those I have never met, how much more does our
Heavenly Father care? We love your family, you are brothers and sisters
in Christ. May God's peace that walks besides you even when the water is
raging be very real to you today, each moment, each hour. May Ben's
healing come sweetly and tenderly. We care...Praying for a healing rain
to fall upon your precious little boy...a miracle life shared with us
all.

I'm so
sorry to hear the latest. I know that no words can be said to unbreak
your hearts right now, but please know that we are praying for your
family and for Big Ben to be pain free. Sending lots of love, prayers,
and hugs your way. I'm getting my co workers involved in the Big Ben
wristband project. I work at the St. Jude in New Albany Indiana, its 1
of the fundraising arms for the hospital in Memphis Tennessee. Lots of
love your way.

I have
been deeply touched by Ben's story this morning. I learned of Ben
through an email request; I am a part of the email "Prayer Buds" group
which is based through June Walker in Monterey. Please know that I am
lifting up your arms through prayer to our Heavenly Father today and the
days to come. My husband and I also pastor a Nazarene Church here in
Chattanooga, Tennessee and you will be added to our prayer chain. May
God richly bless you and your family.
