06:30 Dad is up wrestling with his watch enough so I will wake up. Unknown to him I’ve been up most of the night do to a reaction to all the garlic butter I ate.

After a quick breakfast of raisin bran for me and a waffle for Dad we were off on Hwy 2 hoping to make at least Chinook Montana today.

Towner the cattle capitol of North Dakota

While cruising along about 60 east of Williston I notice that I don’t have enough fuel to make Williston so when I check the GPS there is some off the highway a few miles in Tioga and some on the highway in Ray ND just 10 west of Tioga.

I decided to continue on to Ray instead of wasting time going in and out to Tioga, well that was a mistake.

While driving up to the Cenex I could see E4 as the price for unleaded on the sign. Strange I thought.

RAY ND

When we pulled up to the pumps the unleaded nozzles were covered with bags so I doubled back to the other station and their’s was the same, no fuel. Crap I’m almost bone dry and don’t have enough to go back to Tioga.

I ask the tattooed and pierced bimbo inside if there was anywhere I could get a little unleaded and she says “nope” I say a prayer for the twit and walk back out.

When I went outside there was quite a few vehicles out front but around the corner was a fellow in a pickup and I felt he was the guy I should ask. So I went over and asked him if he knew where I could get a little unleaded fuel.

He said “I think there may be some just over there at our job site, we are working on the mall, I’ll go check and if they have a gas can I’ll be right back”.

I said “oh thank you God for sending this kind fellow to help us”.

Before I knew it he’s back with a big metal fuel can but I needed to borrow a funnel from another fellow working in a shop behind the gas station.

After splashing on a few liters this good Samaritan says “go ahead and put more in, put in all you need it’s no problem’.

Once I had enough I asked him how much we owed and he said “no, no, nothing, it’s nothing”

I thanked him once again for being so kind and he said “hey let me give you my card and if you ever need construction work give us a call and oh let me give me my ministry card as well”

Oh hello I thought. “ah what’s your ministry” I asked.

“I have a prison ministry and oh here’s a card”.

His name is Ruben and he’s a perfect example of a servant of God who went out of his way to help someone in need not knowing as he said if he was in fact entertaining angels as stated in Hebrews 13:2

Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

Ruben then shares his recent healing testimony. He was scheduled for a knee operation yesterday but last Saturday a pastor prayed with him for healing and the power of God showed up and His Knee is healed and he cancelled his operation PRAISE GOD!!

Ruben told us that he couldn’t get off his hands and knees on the job site without two of his workers helping him up but after being healed he easily got down and up on his own with no problem.

What an awesome God we serve. He has also blessed Ruben with a new business that’s busy but as with us all it could be busier.

My dad had been talking with the funnel guy and once he joined us Ruben asked if we could pray and of course we were delighted.

Ruben prayed a moving prayer of praise to our Father thanking him for bringing us together and then claiming His promises for us and thanking God for protecting us as we travelled home.

We prayed thanking God for the prosperity He promised for Ruben, his family and his business. For prosperity to manifest in every area of his life and for the healing in his Body from head to toe to the finger tips. Healed completely in Jesus Name.

After sharing with each other I was kind of sad we had to go, I would have liked to have spent more time with our new brother. I’m sure that this is not the last time I will see Ruben.

We stopped in Williston for fuel and McD for a McClub (Dad’s Hooked) where I book a room in Glasgow Montana. We should get there before dark.

MCCLUB

We booked a room at the Cottonwood Inn and unlike most Northern Motels in Montana this one is nice.

After we get checked in I went down the road to Albertsons to get my kids some goodies and then washed and fuel the bike for tomorrow.

When I returned to the room Dad was laying on the bed saying he could not get the tv to work. Poor guy can’t see well enough to do some stuff.

I talked him into going to the dining room where I had some bread, salad, prime rib sandwich and then Lemon Pie while he has only Blueberry Pie. I really like this diet it’s working well.

He believes Life is uncertain and that you should eat pie first. Also he wasn’t hungry. He also tells the servers that he has a sensitive mouth. (He must be talking about flavor).

Anyway sorry for the dull day but since our friends in Winnipeg were not around for a visit we are making a dash for home. Today we did 13 hours of riding.

In the morning we head for Babb Mt where we see the lady who receives our packages then home by Supper.
