This cassette tape contained the following message by John Robert Stevens.

September 14, 1974 Saturday A.M. Ana.

Our soulish motivations and instincts are being put to the cross. The result is a deep sense of futility and a loss in the drive and will to live. How many of the great ones in the Bible came to despair of life. We must come to the pure motivation in our spirits-the hunger after the Lord and His Living Word. This is the living water that satisfies and we’ll never thirst again. (57 min.)
