Zechariah had been mute for 9 months, when God opened his mouth. In today’s OT reading, God opened the mouth of Balaam’s donkey. God speaks. He even uses doubting daddys and disinclined donkeys.

Luke 9
Pastor Gary Combs concludes the SAFE series with this final message from the book of Luke entitled “Lose Your Life.” Jesus told his disciples that if they strived to save their lives that they would lose them, but if they decided to lose their lives for his sake they would save them. It’s a paradox, but the call of Christ is the call to come and die… so that you might fully live!
