Missionary Journey

Date:

You must have heard how God gave me,
The methods and means to pursue;
With the responsibility,
Of bringing His kindness to you.

You must have heard He let me know,
By revealing a mystery;
So that I am able to show,
In contrast to past history.

You should see that I understand,
The whole mystery about Christ;
What the Father did to command,
And why He had been sacrificed.

This mystery was never known,
By the people as it is now;
For Jesus now sits on His throne,
After being the sacrificed cow.

Since the Spirit has now revealed,
To His apostles and prophets;
From the secrets that had been sealed,
About the riches one inherits.

This mystery is the Good News,
To both Jews and Gentiles alike;
An inheritance we can choose,
Before the Judgment Day will strike.

I am the least of His people,
God had showed me of His kindness;
And letting me spread the Gospel,
For a wealth of His blessedness.

The unsearchable wealth of Christ.
As He allows me to explain;
No longer becoming enticed,
By the pleasures that can cause pain.

God created everything,
Keeping it hidden in the past;
Tore the curtain letting it bring,
Of His plan to focus at last.

So do not become discouraged,
By the troubles that you suffer;
Rather you become encouraged,
By letting Christ be your buffer.

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.
