First Steps

Date:

Those who live a corrupt nature,
Will have a corrupt attitude;
Can never be a new creature,
For they are arrogant and rude.

Those with a spiritual nature,
Have a spiritual attitude;
Reflecting a godly feature,
In having a spiritual mood.

The corrupt nature leads to death,
The spiritual nature is life;
That will go beyond the last breath,
And helps you cope with any strife.

There is a hostile attitude,
That is in a corrupt nature;
Not able to show gratitude,
Or any remorseful feature.

Those who are under the control,
Can never please our Lord God;
And will remain as a lost soul,
For being so terribly flawed.

Like a baby with its first step,
So must the ones who are corrupt;
They have to be ready to prep,
While others not interrupt.

We have no cause to live that way,
For our nature is to live;
Even though we may stumble and stray,
The Lord is willing to forgive.

All those guided by His Spirit,
Are be able to also walk;
With salvation they inherit,
In prayer they are able to talk.

So then if you are His child,
You are also one of His heirs;
When being humbled and mild,
In His inheritance He shares

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.
