Greetings,
Love and blessings to all! Just a note to let you know that the next time that I will see you is when we are all with Jesus unless it comes sooner. I am under hospice care and fading quickly. Kidney failure and prostate cancer the primary causes. Know also that I love you dearly and looking forward to seeing you with our Lord.
Remember you are dearly loved by him and by me!
Ben
There is no joy so complete as knowing who you are -- who God has made you to be and what your basic giftings and drives are. The goal of this book is to get you effectively functioning in roles which allow you to adequately express your heart motivations and gifts. The fulfillment you experience when you function in your gifts and calling is a joy almost beyond belief.
"Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before obscure men." (Prov. 22:29)

Many years ago, I read a book similar to this one by MaryAnn Diorio. In it, God was speaking for page after page. I so hungered to be able to hear God’s voice as the authors of that book did, and as MaryAnn does on the pages of this book.
Now God has allowed me the privilege of raising up an army of writers who are sharing what God has spoken to them. This devotional by MaryAnn contains 100 amazing journal entries of God speaking. Below is one sample:
a devotional by Uta Milewski | 100 pages
Do you sometimes struggle with thoughts and feelings that you don't measure up? I do and I sometimes need a second opinion and a different perspective. In 2006, during an intense season of first doubt and then searching, God gave me His opinion, His heart for me. It set in motion the victories and freedom I now experience in life. I pray you'll be encouraged by the Scriptures and thoughts God gave me during that time.
This is a workbook which guides you in meditating on hundreds of New Testament verses which speak of Who Christ is within us and how to touch and release Him and His wisdom, power and might continuously and effortlessly out through our lives. You will look up every New Testament verse on being "in Christ," "in Him" and "in Whom." In addition, you will meditate on the various names given to the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, and realize that all that He is is available within you and even joined to you (1 Cor. 6:17)! Absolutely amazing!
Wouldn't it be great if there were a way for my body to tell me exactly what it needs and desires, without having to take expensive or invasive tests? Wouldn't it be amazing if I could perform these tests as often as I wanted, right in my own home (or anywhere I wanted), with no costly instruments necessary?
I am healthier at age 60 than I was at age 40! That excites me. I want to share with you what I have learned in the last 18 years since I wrote the book Go Natural. I researched and wrote that first book on health when I was 40 years old because my body was beginning to break down. The truths I learned then improved my health and many others have written to tell me that it improved the quality of their health, as well.
For many years I studied the Bible incorrectly, and it produced death rather than life. Even though I had a knowledge of the Scriptures, I did not personally experience the life and the realities they revealed. The Bible calls this the ministry of death, rather than the ministry of righteousness (2 Cor. 3:6–9). Upon coming out of Bible college, I found myself just like the apostle Paul, attacking those who disagreed with my theology.
Explore the many methods Jesus used to heal. Recognize the significance of the fact that more than half the time, the word used for these healings was the Greek word for "therapeutic," which means "cure". Become aware of 28 therapeutic cures which are either mentioned in the Bible or, if not specifically mentioned, are compatible with biblical principles.
This book is my story of how my cardiac event was resolved by combining the best in medical care, Christian spirituality, and nutrition.
I was NOT supposed to have a cardiac event. I ate a healthy diet, exercised several times a week, consumed lots of great nutrition and sought to live destressed by abiding in Christ. This story contains the lessons I learned in the months of healing after having emergency surgery which involved five heart bypasses.
How do you know? What is the process you use to discover truth? I did not ask that question during the first 25 years of my life. I used various methods for discovering truth such as: if my parents said so, then it was so. If my teacher said it was so, then it was so. If my pastor said it was so, then it was so. If my theology said it was so, then it was so.

I've never met you, Ben, but you've been a spiritual mentor to me.
I don't know what to say... I've been crying and praying in the spirit...
I've trusted you... to truthfully express the words of our Lord more than I've trusted others!
I'll miss you!!!
I've copied and saved many of your blogs...
I plan to pass your blogs on to my family and friends as opportunities arise... and tough times come...
Especially, your blogs where Jesus says to spend time with Him...
There are many.
I guess it is time to pass your blogs on... if your work is done.
I'll miss you!!!
It is difficult for me to tell someone I've never met that "I love you"... but, I do...
My father died of prostate cancer...
My pastor, who the gifts of the spirit flowed through, died of cancer...
Now you... a trusted spiritual mentor are succumbing to cancer...
I want to curse cancer...
But, I will bless you, your wife, and your family... and ask our Lord to bless you, your wife, and your family many, many times more than you have blessed others! I also ask our Lord to free you from pain... through the pain He bore...
Thank you, Ben, for all you've done!
I'll miss you...

Well, Ben is "home" now. The ultimate goal of every believer. I know that he is perfectly healed, and overflowing with God's peace, comfort, and joy. And why not, he is walking hand and hand with Jesus. And I can hear Jesus saying to Ben, " Well done, my good and faithful servant." It's not that Ben loved any of us less, but that he Loved Jesus more. Steve

I am deeply thankful for all the encouraging and heart-drawing words you have posted from our Lord. They've always brought me back to the most important thing - my relationship with Him, time with Him, focus on Him. I pray that knowing how much you have blessed so many brings you great peace and joy as you walk this part of your journey with Jesus. I look forward to meeting you one day.

Dear Ben, Thank you for sharing the words our Lord has put into your heart and mind. When my own father was close to transitioning into the Full Presence of GOD, this is what the Lord spoke into my heart: "Tell him he can trust Me. Never fear, only believe. He has fought the good fight, he has been a mighty warrior. He can hand the battle to Me. I will lead him through the struggles to ultimate and triumphant victory." When I read your message this morning, I felt that I should share this with you. This message is also for you. God bless and God speed.
In His love, Robbin
Just a Thank you!

Dear Ben,
Thank you so much my friend for the difference you made in my walk with our Abba Father. You are the one who convinced me that I am hearing His voice indeed when I was in so much doubt! I will keep you and Mary in my prayers. Remember, the joy of the Lord is your strength. So long till we meet one day...
All my love and blessings.

Dear Ben and those that care deeply for him,
When my own mom was transitioning to her forever home, the Lord comforted me with, "I will not take her one breath before her appointed time." I hope you and yours will take comfort in this as well.
And please remember with all the excitement of heaven, to look up your readers for a face to face as we follow you . . . so much to learn about you and your walk with the Lord. What a time we will have!
You have my prayer,
Lora
