When I’m down and I seem to be week, Lord it is you that I have learned to seek, you always raise me up and give me the strength to move on. When I’m dry and fell as thought all there is to do is cry, I turn to you and you fill me up with more love and compassion how can I hold it all in. When the path that I’m on seems so dark and narrow I cry out to you and you light up my way. You are a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.
Lord I want to seek your face; I want to put my trust in you. I give you my heart. I give you my soul. Lord take all that I am. I give it all to you. Lord I want you to open up my eyes to see what you want me to see. I want you to open up my ears to hear what you want me to hear. I want to be more like you. I want to see as you see I want to hear as you hear.
When I think about you Lord and how much you care for me it leaves me speechless. That is when I am reminded that you are the potter I am the clay mold me and make me this is what I pray. I want you to take the Cole and cleanse my lips and make me pure. I want my life to be an example for others to see.
Lord I want to seek your face; I want to put my trust in you. I give you my heart. I give you my soul. Lord take all that I am. I give it all to you. Lord I want you to open up my eyes to see what you want me to see. I want you to open up my ears to hear what you want me to hear. I want to be more like you. I want to see as you see I want to hear as you hear.

the power of prayer
Power in Prayer
Look into my eyes and you will see who He has made me to be. I have been down many roads but now I’m on the straight and narrow path. There is power in prayer. So drop to your knees and cry out. He will listen 24/7. He is the healer of the broken, he is the healer of the sick, He is the healer of the starving, he is the healer of the blind, He is the healer of the leaper he is the healer of the deaf. He is the healer of everything. Put your trust in Him there is power in prayer.
Will you pray for your family, will you pray for your friends, Will you pray for your country, will you pray for your coworkers, Will you pray for your nation, Will you pray for the hurting will you pray for the lost. There is power in prayer if you will just take a moment to talk to God he will answer you. It don’t matter what you may be going threw God see you threw it all. That’s why there is power in prayer.

My life Story
Hello Friends,
Let me start o with My name is Ben Larson. I was born on November 23,1982. I have been threw a lot of trials in life but I have learned a lot from it all. When I was two months old I became very sick with spinal meningitis. This caused me to lose all of my hearing in both ears except for about 10%. Thant is why I now where two hearing aids one in each ear. This allows me to have about 90% of my hearing back in both ears. When I was in Kindergarten my parents decided to get a divorce. I can remember all the stress, confusion, and feelings that I was feeling at that time. I also because of my hearing impairment and lack of understanding of the ABC's was held back in Kindergarten. I really struggled with school. Because of everything that was taking place in my life at this time it caused a lot of hurt in my life so therefor I learned to just put on a mask and pretend that everything was all right when really it wasn't. It was when I was in the third grade that my parents decided to send me to a deaf and hard of hearing school. I'm very thankful that they did this for me because I was able to make a lot of friends there and for once I felt like I fit in with my peers. In fact I was the first Deaf/Hard of hearing Boy in the state of Nebraska to be in swing choirs both my seventh and eight grade years. It was at the end of my eighth grade year that I made the decision that I wanted to come back to my home district for High school. That was one of the hardest transitions that I have ever had to go threw. I had to make all new friends and I got picked on very badly. Because my peers didn't understand what it was like to have a deaf student in there classes and my speech impairment I was called some pretty hurtful names. It was after high school that I moved out on my own. This is when everything in m life started to fall apart. I got hooked up with the wrong crowd and started looking for love in all the wrong places. I started drinking, going to strip bars, and smoking cigarettes. I never did find happiness or love in any of these things. I only became more and more lonely and depressed. this only led to more things and so I turned to homosexuality to try and find love there. I eventually started dating these men that I was meeting at the gay bars. I was letting this addiction take over my life. I couldn't focus on what I needed to be doing as a christian. I was losing my life a my friends and my family. It was at this point in my life that I called up my Mom and asked her for some help. After talking to her for a couple of months I made the decision to move down to Kansas and try and star my life over there . Everything started out good. Pastor Pat and the church in Wamego were very welcoming. When really nothing had changed I chose to bring my problems and addictions here with me. I started lying to my parents Pastor and my friends. I was losing my trust from everyone. It was at that point that I knew I needed to get help so I entered a program called teen Challenge. I'm very thankful that I did this. It has helped to to become a better christian. I'm living a totally new lifestyle. This is just the beginning of my Life story. There still is a lot more to be written about in the future.
