No Greater Joy

Date:

I do not feel that it is uncouth,
That I have a love in the truth;
Knowing all of which I have heard,
That has been written in the Word.

I pray that you are doing well,
In the Lord spiritually dwell;
And you are remaining healthy,
In being spiritually wealthy.

I am happy when believers,
That they rebuke the deceivers;
Came and told how they are living,
Benevolent in their giving.

There is never a greater joy,
Than having Christian views employ;
Because the truth has to be told,
So others know how to behold.

Nothing makes me gladder to hear,
Than my children know God is near;
Living according to the truth,
And not being a mindless youth.

For the faith you have been showing,
Because of what you are knowing;
Doing for other believers,
So they are being receivers.

Receivers of encouragement,
With faith as an acknowledgement;
Especially being your guest,
Be a voice so they become blest.

These believers explained their love,
From what God has sent from above;
And will not hold back from others,
Encourage them to be brothers.

You do very well to give support,
Others to get them to exhort;
On their journey along their way,
Stay on course not to go astray.

On a trip to serve Jesus Christ,
And never becoming enticed;
By some of the earthly treasures
And giving temporary pleasures

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.
