Ruler of the Waves

Date:

Who is it that doubts His advice?
With the words that never will show;
Any knowledge to be precise,
For the Lord already does know.

Brace yourself and act like a man,
He will ask you so you can teach;
Because He has developed a plan,
For you to go with an outreach.

Where were you for the foundation?
Tell me if you have such insight;
A cornerstone for salvation,
That will make the future look bright.

Who determined the dimensions?
And who stretched a measuring line?
Do you know the true intentions?
The motive by the great Divine.

When morning stars together sang,
And all His sons shouted for joy;
Who shut the gates when the bells rang?
Before sea waves came to destroy.

But it burst through out of the womb,
When He clothed it with fluffy clouds;
But dark clouds took it to the tomb,
As witnessed by the angry crowds.

When God sets a limit for it,
And erects the bars and the gates;
If you confess you inherit,
You will receive part of what waits.

You may go there but no farther,
When your proud waves finally stop;
Just when you can call Him Father,
You can continue to the top.

Have you ever given orders?
To the morning for placing dawn;
Watching the sun from four corners,
On rising up and being gone.

Grabbing the edges of the earth,
Astonishing with each breath;
The dawning giving it new birth,
As the dusk is causing its death.

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.
