Backward Sounds

Date:

We must always consider,
How to encourage someone;
Whether brother or sister,
As well as daughter or son.

Show each other how to love,
And how to do all good things;
How to show honor above,
Everything the Lord brings.

We should gather together,
With some other believers;
Just like birds of a feather,
As spiritual transceivers.

For the day will soon be here,
With the coming of the Lord;
The day we cherish so dear,
That can never be ignored.

If we continue to sin,
After we have learned the truth;
Being corrupted within,
An attitude still uncouth.

No sacrifice takes away,
Our sins we repent not;
Because we constantly stray,
For earthly pleasures we sought.

All that is left is to wait,
For judgment and raging fire;
Since we have sealed our fate,
From our own desire.

If someone has been accused,
Rejecting what Moses taught;
Be not a victim abused,
And for mercy to be sought.

If someone shows no respect,
Onto our triune God;
The reaction should reflect,
They should be remaining flawed.

We should know the God, who said,
“I alone will take revenge;
And I will pay back instead,
For I will judge and avenge.”

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.
