Hidden Treasure

Date:

If you take my words to heart,
And treasure all my commands;
You will then have a good start,
In avoiding sinking sands.

If you pay close attention,
And let your mind comprehend,
Allowing intervention,
For the wisdom to attend.

If you call out for insight,
And ask for understanding;
You will be seeing the light,
To what things are demanding.

If you search for the wisdom,
As possibly being cash;
Follow it to the kingdom,
You will be finding the stash.

Then you are able to see,
What is the fear of the Lord;
And knowledge of God will be,
Acknowledged and not ignored.

For the Lord will give wisdom,
From His mouth into your mind;
Flowing down from His kingdom,
If you are humbled and kind.

Priceless wisdom is reserved,
For those with integrity;
A shield that one is preserved,
In worthy prosperity.

In order to guard the path,
Of justice and watch the way;
The righteous are spared the wrath,
While they trust and obey.

You understand what is right,
What is a good course in life;
As the just and fair is bright,
So you can avoid the strife.

Wisdom will come in your heart,
As knowledge will be pleasing;
Never allow it to part,
Or knowledge will be ceasing.

Richard Sherrer is actually retired from the United States Air Force about 14 years ago. He had lived in Korea while in the Air Force in 1972 and 1973. You might be asking yourself what brought him back to Korea. I guess you could say that it was a lot of love here, for the country, the people and especially for a Christian woman that he met on the Internet. She convinced him to return to be with her. So he came originally to teach English in July of 2000. They were married July of 2001. Now turned poet which is subject that is near and dear to his heart. His love for Christ and God is an inspiration to all who read his poetry.
