What Matters

Date:

Do you have encouragement,
With any comfort from love;
Heavenly acknowledgement,
That it comes from up above.

Does love give you compassion,
With a new relationship;
An understanding fashion,
Having a spiritual lip.

Are you showing sympathy,
For anyone that is down;
Rendering aid to their plea,
Make a smile from their frown.

Fill with joy get in the mood,
While living in harmony;
Having the same attitude,
To get rid of agony.

Always keep one thing in mind,
Never act as conceited;
Rather be humble and kind,
Whoever will be greeted.

Show concern for all others,
Things that are concerning them;
They are sisters and brothers,
And you should never condemn.

Never attempt to be rude,
Rather always be like Christ;
Having the same attitude,
Willing to be sacrificed.

Christ was in the form of God,
As well as being equal;
He still showed honor and laud,
Will return for a sequel.

Many give interference,
Of God becoming a man;
But His human appearance,
Had been a part of His plan.

He was humbled and obeyed,
Right up onto His last breath;
So our sins could be paid,
Upon the cross through His death.

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.
