The Peace

Date:

The Lord has called on you,
As if you were a wife;
In grief and feeling blue,
With problem in your life.

A wife who married young,
And feeling rejected;
A sad song being sung,
Feeling so neglected.

The Lord abandoned you,
For just a brief moment;
But He will bring back to,
Ease pain from your torment.

The Lord has hid His face,
In a burst of anger;
But compassion through grace,
For pain that does linger.

God is your defender,
With eternal kindness;
To fight a contender,
From wicked blindness.

So now God swears an oath,
Not to anger through wrath;
Rather help you through growth,
On the straight and thin path.

Though the mountains may move,
As the hills just might shake;
But He will not remove,
The kindness for your sake.

His promise is of peace,
That will never alter;
Compassion will not cease,
And will never falter.

The storm ravaged city,
He ensures to rebuild;
Because He takes pity,
So your faith is instilled.

Your children will be taught,
To have infinite peace;
Everything as sought,
Making wisdom increase.

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.
