SHIN

Date:

Influential people,
Have persecuted me;
For preaching the Gospel,
For no reason to see.

But it is just His Word,
That is filling my heart;
With terror that I heard,
In making me impart.

I find joy through promise,
Like a priceless treasure;
Or angelic chorus,
For a singing pleasure.

I am fed up with lies,
That so many have sought;
The truth that they disguise,
But love what God has taught.

Several times a day,
I am praising His name;
Singing song as I pray,
The Gospel I proclaim.

For His righteous command,
Will bring a lasting peace;
To those who understand,
And stumbling will cease.

I have waited with hope,
For the Lord to save me;
While I live here and cope,
And finally set free.

I have carried His Law,
Obeyed His instructions;
So I get not a flaw,
And no contradictions.

I love God very much,
And follow His precepts;
For my life is as such,
To live as He accepts.

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.
