Source of Strength

Date:

Go find your source of strength,
In the kindness of Christ;
To cope at any length,
On what is sacrificed.

You have heard my message,
Which is being confirmed;
Christ gives rite of passage,
The Gospel has affirmed.

So entrust this content,
To the faithful people;
In being competent,
With teaching the Gospel.

Join me in suffering,
Being a good soldier;
With God for buffering,
From those who are vulgar.

No soldier in service,
Would ever get involved;
For it makes him nervous.
So record is absolved.

Whoever enters sports,
Have to play by the rules;
Not as one who distorts,
Making a game of fools.

Farmers should give first share,
Harvesting what they reap;
Showing God that they care,
Through sacrifice of sheep.

Think about Jesus Christ,
He was brought back to life;
As the lamb sacrificed,
Through the toils and strife.

But this is the Good News,
Of what I tell others;
Showing that they can choose,
In becoming brothers.

I suffer in disgrace,
For spreading this Good News;
If we deny His face,
We must pay our dues.

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.
