Becoming who God created us to be is a lifelong process, which often occurs in small moments as we choose love over every other thing.
2 Corinthians 5:17: “So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; look, new things have come into being!”
Driving dusty country road
Spotting landscape’s mountain peak
Deciding to climb her now
Stopping at cozy diner
Feeling extra hungry now
Ordering one more entrée
Traveling to nearby park
Witnessing fall’s colors now
Taking plenty of photos
Locating brand new car wash
Seeing truck looks dirty now
Selecting supreme wash job
Seeing family in need
Buying them blessed, hot meal
Filling up empty tank now
Pausing, time with Father now
Praying for needs of others
Thanking Him for many gifts
Wrapping up for now . . . just another day!

This informative post will be posted on Saturday along with my usual writing. You are invited to participate with the opening question.
Which Montana town’s name is best represented by Morse Code for the letter “I”?
(answer found at the end of this post)
The state of Montana is blessed with a litany of small towns with unique names. One town was named for the “pair of dots” design of an area rancher’s cattle brand.
Here are some interesting facts about this small town in the Treasure State:
In an interesting and related note, one other Montana community is named for a rancher’s cattle brand. The town of Circle, which is located in the northeastern region between the communities of Glendive and Wolf Point, is named after the circle-shaped brand of an area ranch.
Two Dot
This is also the name of this mystery town in Montana. Rancher George R. Wilson, who donated the land for the town from his vast land holdings, also went by the name of Two Dot Wilson.
Books are the mirrors of the soul.
Fiction is like a spider’s web, attached ever so lightly perhaps, but still attached to life at all four corners.
Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was an English writer who was a pioneer in the use of stream of consciousness with her narratives’ voice.

Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you.
From Romans 12:11-12: “Do not lag in zeal; be ardent in spirit; serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; persevere in prayer.
From creation’s headwaters
River’s energy never rests
Hearing mountainous echoes
Ready for nature’s big test
Faithful as morning’s sunrise
River’s journey covers distance
Navigating every mile
Ready to lead with persistence
Nature salutes steady flow
River’s majesty looks ahead
Following distant landmarks
Ready to search for beachhead
Goal set by master’s vision
River’s eyes searching oceans blue
Wrapping up eternal trip
Ready for its rendezvous
Mission now accomplished
River’s destiny all complete
Blessing past, present, and future
Ready with lasting heartbeat
