Rescue Others

Date:

I do not become discouraged,
Since the day God told me to start;
In fact I am more encouraged,
By how the words flow from my heart.

It is for rescuing others,
Which is just like shooting a fly;
Try to make sisters and brothers,
All of the ones who will ask why.

I have refused to use secret,
Or tricking them in shameful ways;
And never have any regret,
Exploiting a poetic phrase.

I distort not the Word of God,
As He constantly watches me;
Ensuring my poems are not flawed,
While giving insight to see.

This is my recommendation,
Not to sound like I am uncouth;
But I write for your foundation,
By telling you the honest truth.

Maybe not all that I might say
Is politically correct;
It is to the Lord that I pray,
And no desire to reject.

So if the Good News does offend,
Why not take some time to construe;
For we are now nearing the end,
When you find out all I say is true.

I cover my face with a veil,
Hidden from those who are dying;
Thinking that people had a tail,
A theory some are applying.

Many here are now living blind,
And no longer do believe;
For Satan has messed with their mind,
Have no salvation to receive.

So they will never see the light,
On the glory of Jesus Christ;
Fate sealed not doing what is right,
They are always being enticed.

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.
