From the Heart

Date:

Return unto the Lord,
With your entire heart;
Fast in one accord,
Crying as you impart.

Tear your heart, not your clothes,
And return to your Lord;
While His mercy flows,
Compassion not ignored.

Be patient and forgive,
For changing plans about;
A disasters motive,
That would cause any doubt.

God may reconsider,
About changing His plan;
In not feeling bitter,
Of the creature named man.

Then you give a blessing,
Offering grain and wine;
As you are confessing,
To the Holy Divine.

Blow the horn of the ram,
Schedule a time to fast;
Worship the great “I AM”,
All worries left in past.

Gather up the people,
And enter into church;
So they learn the Gospel,
Answering what they search.

Gather up each child,
All of the grooms and brides;
And be reconciled,
By our Lord who guides.

The pastors who serves God,
While at the altar;
Giving honor and laud,
And shall never falter.

Spare Your people, O Lord,
Not to be a disgrace;
Let us not be ignored,
Give us Your sweet embrace.

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.
