It is pleasing to the dear God whenever thou rejoicest or laughest from the bottom of thy heart.
Martin LutherYou may as well quit reading and hearing the Word of God, and give it to the devil, if you do not desire to live according to it.
Martin LutherIf I did not see that the Lord kept watch over the ship, I should long since have abandoned the helm. But I see Him! - through the storm, strengthening the tackling, handling the yards, spreading the sails - yes more, commanding the very winds! Should I not be a coward if I abandoned my post? Let Him govern, let Him carry us forward, let Him hasten or delay; we will fear nothing!
Martin Luther
