Supplications through Prayers

Date:

I urge you to make petitions,
Prayers of thanks and intercessions;
For the presidents and the kings,
Through authority that it brings.

Pray for these people so that we,
Can have a peaceful life to see;
Living in a reverent way,
A godly life every day.

This is good as it pleases God,
To whom we should honor and laud;
For being both Lord and Savior,
So He looks on us with favor.

He wants all people to be saved,
Rather than to sin be enslaved;
And not to be rude and uncouth,
Instead learn in telling the truth.

There is just one God, only one,
Spirit, the Father and the Son;
And with just one mediator,
Lets us in through the narrow door.

As we know by reading the Gospel,
Christ sacrificed for all people;
To free us all from our sin,
Into Heaven we enter in.

This is true for every age,
For letting us, start a new page;
In order for reaching that goal,
Confession is good for the soul.

I am a herald for the Good News,
Teaching others to change their views;
Being an apostle to reach,
Out to the people as to teach.

What I teach I never ask why,
For I tell the truth and not lie;
A teacher in the faith and truth,
Humbled and not to be uncouth.

I offer men everywhere,
For raising up their hands in prayer;
Putting aside anger and hate.
So that they do not seal their fate.

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.
