A Greater Reward

Date:

I did not speak before,
About the mystery;
Of wisdom that will pour,
From our history.

I decided to deal,
With only one story;
How your bruises will heal,
Through Christ and His glory.

Jesus was crucified,
For payment of your debt;
And it is rectified,
When confessing regret.

I was nervous and weak,
Before I knew the Lord;
Not knowing what to seek,
Felt like I was ignored.

His Spirit gave me might,
Power through His wisdom;
Anointed with insight,
Flowing from His Kingdom.

I use wisdom to speak,
To those who are mature;
For answers that they seek,
On things they are not sure.

Some rulers rule today,
And be gone tomorrow;
Wisdom shows them the way,
For avoiding sorrow.

One will not understand,
The concept of the Lord;
And of what He has planned,
If constantly ignored.

No eye has ever seen,
No ear has ever heard;
Experienced what has been,
As written in the Word.

Nobody has conceived,
The things God prepared;
Only if loved and believed,
Will they ever be shared.

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.
