I Still Held Fast To My Determination To Become A Minister; It Still Seemed To Me That That Was My Duty. I Had Pledged Myself, In My Prayers I Had Given My Word To God. How Could I Therefore Break My Vow?

But It Is True That Sometimes An Enveloping Darkness Aids One To Clearer Vision; As In A Panorama Building, For Example, Where The Obscurity About The Entrance Prepares One Better For The Climax, And Gives The Scene Depicted A More Real And Vivid Appearance.
