Stay Committed

Date:

Do not be preoccupied,
Fret not with evildoers;
For you know that they have lied,
Be spiritual pursuers.

Do not envy of those who,
Are doing such wicked things;
Because the pleasures are few,
For any results it brings.

They quickly dry up like grass,
Wither away like green plants;
As they will tarnish like brass,
Slowly puts you in a trance.

Do good things and trust the Lord,
Being faithful where you live;
Never let Him be ignored,
But thankful what He will give.

Be happy having delight,
He knows of your desires;
Pleasure Him by doing right,
Show who your heart admires.

Trust and commit to the Lord,
Trust Him with your heart and soul;
In being loved and adored,
By letting Him take control.

He makes your righteousness shine,
Brighter than the noonday sun;
Pray before each time you dine,
And when your day has begun.

Submit yourself to the Lord,
Waiting patiently for Him;
You will never be ignored,
Feeling His vigor and vim.

Fret not by any evil,
Not to be overtaken;
Rage is ploy for the devil,
For you will be forsaken.

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.
