TABLE TALK

Our life is like the sailing of the ship; as the mariners in the ship have before them a haven towards which they direct their course, and where they will be secure from all danger, even so the promise of everlasting life is made unto us, that we therein, as in a safe haven, may rest calm and secure. But seeing our ship is weak, and the winds and waves beat upon us, as though they would overwhelm us, therefore we have need of a good and experienced pilot, who with his counsel and advise may rule and govern the vessel, that it run not on a rock, or utterly sink and go down. Such a pilot is our blessed Savior Christ Jesus.

from “The Table Talk of Martin Luther”
