Righteous Shepherd

Date:

What can we say about someone?
If the Lord is supporting us;
Together with the Father and Son,
Should we then be raising a fuss?

Who then can ever be against,
Through His Spirit we have support;
Although emotions will be tensed,
On that day you appear in court.

God did not spare His only Son,
But handed Him over to death;
For us that the battle is won,
Giving His everlasting breath.

God will give us everything,
Along with Christ to inherit;
For the righteousness it will bring,
But not merely on your merit.

Who can accuse those God chose,
Through Christ God has approved of them;
For unto them, His blessing flows,
While others He will condemn.

Christ had died and brought back to life,
And has the highest position;
Even though we have so much strife,
In Heaven no opposition.

No opposition meaning peace,
For Christ also intercedes;
As all hostilities will cease,
For all abiding by His creeds.

Can all your trouble cause distress,
For danger to hunger and thirst;
And can He clothe your nakedness,
If feelings separates us first.

Violent death will block His love,
As we are slaughtered all day long;
But the shepherd from up above,
Will keep His sheep healthy and strong.

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.
