Challenges and Privileges

Today I was challenged by the account of Balaam in Numbers 24. He is called "the man whose eyes are opened, who hears the words of God, who sees the vision of the Almighty, and who has knowledge of the Most High."
Balaam was one of the "baddies". How much more should we, as Christians, be those whose eyes are opened, hearing God's words, seeing the vision of the Almighty and having knowledge of the Most High?

I was also challenged from 1 Peter 2. Personalizing the verse makes it "hit home harder". "Christ suffered for me, leaving me an example that I should follow His steps." and "He Himself bore my sins in His own body on the tree, that I, having died to sins, might LIVE FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS- by whose stripes I was healed."
Linking that with 1 Corinthians 1:30,  "But of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:" (World English Bible) we see that Christ is our righteousness, and therefore, we "might live for Jesus." What a privilege!!
