Coming into the parking lot of the church where Ben Lund's parents and love ones await I find myself feeling a little discouraged; see Ben has been featured on our national tour two years ago and he is still missing, time has dragged on for this family and I have lived it along side of them. He is so young, their love is so transparent to any stranger, for me I feel it right to my core. Beth aches for her son and Craig stands like a guardsman in wait and protecting her, most days holding her up. I think people should not have to suffer like this dammit. So I go in and it is always great to see our families...it was a awesome tribute to Ben and while their I get a sense their will not be another tour, I think maybe it will be his turn next to be found, I was feeling hopeful. Their were prayers sent up, I have to admit on this tour we have been prayed for in every states and by every faith on earth, I am thinking God has to be having a miracle heading our way soon, I will wait! I tell you all this as people need to stop always saying I will pray for you or the famous..you are in our prayers, if more really did pray a lot more things in life would be evident of it. It is time to leave now and that is always hard, you wait for the right moment when your departure will be less noticeable, yea that never happens either...so you fight back tears because you are the strength for these families of coarse, you are the advocate, right? Pulling out we have a beep and quick wave, I saw a half worried smile come across their faces...I carried that image with me for over four hundred miles..
