Shrinking

Date:

Good will and peace from God,
Our Father and Lord;
That we honor and laud,
Always loved and adored.

So we unite with Christ,
Thanking God what we got;
And no longer enticed,
For the things we have not.

I thank for memories,
That the Lord has given;
Many new victories,
As we trek to Heaven.

Every time I pray,
It is for all of you;
With joy as I obey,
In all we know is true.

I can do this because,
Of my relationship;
With the Lord through His Laws,
That prevents from a slip.

But the Laws through Good News,
Since day one we believed;
Having the right to choose,
On what we have received.

I am convinced that God,
Began good work in you;
Willing to cure where flawed,
Helping you to construe.

We will carry it through,
Till completion that day;
Continue to pursue,
While we hope and pray.

You have a special place,
That remains in my heart;
As we keep in His grace,
With love not to depart.

It is right for to think,
This way about all you;
Not to shrink to the brink,
Not knowing what is true.

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.
