WHAT IS HE WORTH?
November 12, 1978 Sunday A.M. Val.
When you want to count the cost, it’s too much to pay. When the treasure hid in the field is revealed, no price is too great. We are committing ourselves to the big “yes” before we know what the question will be. We rejoice in the treasure until its price is of no consequence. (36 min.)

November 12, 1978 Sunday A.M. Ana.

AM I WILLING TO BE WILLING?
November 5, 1978 Sunday A.M. Val.
We have a revelation of what we are to be but we find ourselves unwilling to pay the price involved. We are apprehensive and we murmur rather than possess Canaan.

DO I KNOW ME?
November 5, 1978 Sunday A.M. Ana.
A Laodicean does not know when he is naked or poor or miserable. He does not know what his spiritual state is and if he did know, it would take some zealous repenting to motivate him out of it. What is the answer? The Lord says, “I know you,” and He alone can reveal to you your own heart. (30 min.)

February 15, 1975 Saturday A.M. Ana.
Every meeting with God at every level of our experience is attended with joy, His joy. When we serve the Lord dutifully but without joy, there is something clouding our relationship and walk with God. We, too, may be “sorrowful, but always rejoicing.” The Lord makes our Valley of Trouble a door of hope that we sing before the Lord. (56 min.)
