A Giving and Gentle Spirit

Date:

Wives must be under their man,
Under his authority;
Submitting unto his plan,
Giving it a priority.

Some husbands may not obey,
What is commanded by the Lord;
As it seems they go astray,
The Word of God is ignored.

Their women could win these men,
For Christ the way that they live;
Help them see their errors when,
Asking for God to forgive.

Husbands would see just how pure,
And reverent their lives are;
How guiltless the inner core,
Without a flaw or a scar.

Beauty is not just outside,
Using makeup and hairdos;
Beauty on the inside,
Through the lifestyle they choose.

Beauty expresses the mood,
If with a gentle spirit;
And a quiet attitude,
Upon their daily merit.

Holy women have the trust,
Express beauty of their own;
Experiencing no lust,
As men do acting alone.

Men live with understanding,
That wives are weaker than they;
For life is more demanding,
So to help wives through each day.

Honor wives as those who share,
Life-giving kindness from God;
The little things show you care,
And keeps you from getting flawed.

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.
