“There are only two options for a ship: Either to sail to the sea and fight with the waves or rot in a port! The same is valid for the man!”

“Not so much two ships passing in the night as two ships sailing together for a time but always bound for different ports.”

“Like the vital rudder of a ship, we have been provided a way to determine the direction we travel. The lighthouse of the Lord beckons to all as we sail the seas of life. Our home port is the celestial kingdom of God. Our purpose is to steer an undeviating course in that direction. A man without a purpose is like a ship without a rudder—never likely to reach home port. To us comes the signal: Chart your course, set your sail, position your rudder, and proceed.”

“There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.”

“Though the harbor is safe, ships were made to sail the sea. The same can be said for you and me.”

“The anchor heaves, the ship swings freeThe sails swell full. To sea, to sea!”
