Ryan, I saw it at Of First Importance -- http://firstimportance.org/2008/06/16/better-news-the-gospel-brings/ -- but they found it quoted in Jerry Bridges's "The Discipline of Grace."
In Tim Chester's book "You can Change" he quotes this wonderful verse too... but the footnote states:
"This verse is often attributed to John Bunyan, but Charles H. Spurgeon attributes it to John Berridge, a preacher during the Great Awakening, in The Salt Cellars, Passmore & Alabaster, London, 1889, p. 200."

A good quote from Bunyan:
“Prayer will make a man cease from sin, or sin will entice a man to cease from prayer”
Jared, excellent Bunyan quote. Where did you find it?

Such a beautiful verse!
