A Safe Place

Date:

You are totally defeated,
Because of lawsuits against you;
Since your funds have been depleted,
It is difficult to construe.

Why can you not accept the fact,
Of the things that you have done wrong;
Cheating while caught in the act,
And make the agony prolong.

You have done wrong because you cheat,
As you do this to believers;
How can you live with such deceit,
Coaxing others as deceivers.

You cannot go to His Kingdom,
If you are a wicked person;
Look onto God and His wisdom,
For your salvation to be won.

People who continue to sin,
To worship the false gods and lust;
Will remain corrupted within,
The Lord can never give His trust.

All homosexuals and thieves,
Or by being greedy or drunk;
Someone that swearing or deceives,
Will wind up stinking like a skunk.

It is hopeless to inherit,
If you have not been purified;
While doing evil merit,
And ignoring the crucified.

That is something that you have been,
But you washed and became holy;
Do not ever backslide again,
For Christ as your one and only.

You have received His approval,
Since God transformed your sin-stained soul;
Through iniquity removal,
Allowing God to take control.

Finding refuge in a safe place,
Approved in the name of the Lord;
Comforted in His saving grace,
And remaining in one accord.

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.
