https://www.sermonindex.net/modules/mydownloads/visit.php?lid=89i listened to this sermon a wile back, it takes me about 10 minutes to "get into" Sparks messages, Ive noticed he has a depth of spirituality that its hard if you don't pay 100% attention to grasp what he is saying. But i really "listened" to this, and what can i say, in that situation, at that time it just was a truly awesome knee bending message.i pray someone will take time to listen to thisChristain

Thanks brother for this. I just heard this message. It is delivered on 11/01/1958."So God established this painful way, this suffering way as the only way as He could recover and establish the law of values, a preciousness, to save man from his superficiality in regard to the most costly things...[b]Anything that comes from God will sooner or later, pass into the realm of suffering,[/b] into the realm of travail to find out how much value we put upon it, how much it really means to us, how much we have seen of God in it, it will become a matter of life or death..."
Yes, this is a very good sermon, Sparks has some incredible insight on the principle of travail in our life and how it brings a preciousness to what is born from it that can come in no other way. Another nugget of gold mined from the depths of SI.I have been tremendously blessed through the sermons and writings of this man, especially his magazine A Witness and a Testimony. It's definitely some strong meat for the hungry soul. You can find some of the magazine volumes online [url=http://www.austin-sparks.net/magazines.html]HERE[/url].In Christ,Ron
