Who's Your Donkey?


This is a reiteration of a sermon I heard at Grace Baptist in Norwalk, CT. Yeah man tha's right Norwalk. Not qb, but south norwalk. That's another entry for another day. He's alive! I'm stay tellin 'em.

But at this church, the pastor spoke about a story of the Bible in Numbers 22. It was about a man named Balaam, a man of God known to bless people and then sometimes curse people. You should read the story(Numbers 22 & 23) yourself to fully understand, but the basic idea was that Balaam's donkey was preventing him from doing wrong. And Balaam beat the donkey several times for each time it stopped him from doing what he wanted. It wasn't until the donkey actually spoke that Balaam realized what he was going to do was wrong.

How many times have I slapped the hand that tried to stop the other from burning?...How many times have you?

Who's the donkey in your life?
