Judgment

Date:

Why do you criticize?
You seem to have a grudge;
As Christians you despise,
But God will be your judge.

You will stand before God,
Judged for thought, word and deed;
For all that makes you flawed,
With wickedness and greed.

As certain as He lives,
You will honor and laud;
For the praise that one gives,
While worshipping God.

Every one of us,
Give an account to God;
Justifying as thus,
The reason we are flawed.

So stop criticizing,
No longer having doubt;
Stop your fantasizing,
What darkness is about.

The Lord has given me,
Knowledge and conviction;
What to and not to see,
Because of addiction.

Food is acceptable,
Though some say it is not;
God makes delectable,
For the nourishment sought.

If some food makes one sick,
You do not live by love;
Repent for the toxic,
Within the food thereof.

What someone eats or drinks,
Dwells not in His kingdom;
Rather peace what one thinks,
Shows spiritual wisdom.

The joy His Spirit gives,
Is pleasing to the Lord;
Respecting how one lives,
And how God is adored.

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.
