Who Am I?

"The joiner when he glues together two boards, keeps them tightly clamped til the cement sets, and the outward pressure is no more needed; then he unscrews. So with calamities, depressions, and disappointments that cursh ut into close contact with God. The pressure on us is kept up till the soul's union with God is set. Instant relief would not establish the habit of prayer, though it might make us blieve in it with a promptitude too shallow too last or to make it the principle of our soul's life at any depth."
