Hidden Treasure

Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jun 2, 2002

No act of faith or obedience, whether great or small, whether seen or unseen, will go unrewarded.

This morning, I’d like to address a simple question: Is it worth it? Is the payoff worth the cost, is the potential reward worth the risk?

The key to this Bible reading is Mary’s response of obedience. “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary said. “May it be to me as you have said” (1:38). JB Phillips ...read more
