Powerful Lessons from the Life of Balaam

For everyone in the battle, there will be good days and bad. In light of eternity, how do we keep one hard day from wiping out our reward? Wouldn’t it save a lot of time and trouble if we decided ahead of time where to go for encouragement when the day seems long, and the sky looks dark?
