Ben Went Home

Ben had put away his labors and his cares, toward tranquility. Nearby the community of friends and believers stood waiting. We passed through paths of Bible study, prayer and fellowship. His labors now completed. As Ben approached God's Son,

His life crossed path with ours. The news spread among our people, from hour to hour. We had been gathering in Ben's earthly home, where Connie had made such hospitality known We never saw death coming, until a few days before Soon we knew, but were knowing not the day nor hour Ben's earthly life would, in heaven, begin again. And now it has resumed, with Jesus, born again. Eternal life with Jesus will go far, far beyond the paltry seventy-one years, now far gone. So now Ben has run his seventy-one year race. He's already met our Savior, Jesus, face to face. Do not be sad. Rejoice; be glad! King of Soul
