Bad Balaam’s Wise Words

From today’s reading…

A hero arises from their stock, he reigns over countless peoples. His king is greater than Agag, and his kingship held in honour.” Numbers 24:7

Balaam, son of Beor, was not a good guy, but he was an insightful prophet who knew and spoke the truth about how Israel would be settled, how God blessed the tribes of Israel, and how the greatest of kings would come from them.

Too bad Balaam didn’t walk his talk, but we can learn from his moment of wisdom and use his words to help us…

Stay the course. Keep the faith. Endure.

Now go sell something.
