The House Builder

Date:

You are holy partners,
Whenever Heaven calls;
For we are foreigners,
Until the time befalls.

Carefully look at Christ,
And the declaration;
If we have sacrificed,
For our salvation.

Jesus Christ is faithful,
Unto our Father;
And we should be grateful,
Being our Brother.

Jesus deserves more praise,
Than what Moses had done;
For the house He did raise,
While being the Son.

Moses served in God’s house,
The temple that he built;
His job was very grouse,
Keeping it free from guilt.

Each house has a builder,
And that builder is God;
Who does not bewilder,
But we do being flawed.

For a faithful servant,
Moses was to the Lord;
He remained reverent,
While others ignored.

Christ is a faithful Son,
A church built on a rock;
God was pleased what was done,
A place where we can flock.

If you hear God speak today,
Do not try to rebel;
Rather trust and obey,
Do the thing He will tell.

More houses must be built,
So harden not your heart;
God might load you with guilt,
Causing your plans to thwart.

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.
