One Day

Date:

Do not ignore this fact,
That one day with the Lord;
Like years to be exact,
While in one accord.

Thousand years like one day,
When with the Lord your God;
As you trust and obey,
While honor and laud.

The Lord is never slow,
To do what He promised;
Some will think that they know,
Best as an atheist.

But patient for your sake,
For He will not destroy;
The chance that you may take,
In what you might enjoy.

God wants to give a chance,
For you to change your way;
Enabled to advance,
From the ways you did stray.

He will come like a thief,
In the cover of night;
Someone in disbelief,
Will burn from intense light.

Because of on that day,
When heard a roaring sound;
Heaven will pass away,
Christ will come and astound.

The universe will burn,
Destroying what man made;
Too late for you to turn,
Fate that waits to evade.

So think how you must live,
The kind of holy lives;
Asking God to forgive,
Prepared when Christ arrives.

Then you look forward to,
What the Lord has declared;
Of a new earth for you,
All believers be shared

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.
