The LORD Speaks

Date:

I am so insignificant,
How can I answer unto Him;
When I am just an applicant,
That is feeling lowly and grim.

I put my hand over my lips,
After speaking had no answer;
From my cup I take a few sips,
Of wine to feel like a lancer.

The Lord finally did respond,
Unto me out of a wind storm;
Speaking to me from up beyond,
From clouds in a majestic form.

So I braced myself like a man,
As I asked for Him to teach me;
For knowing what was in His plan,
Giving me the insight to see.

I would not undo His justice,
And never try to condemn Him;
Wishing to be His apprentice,
Being granted spiritual vim.

I do not have power like God,
And my voice cannot make thunder;
I can only honor and laud,
While confessing my blunder.

I must then dress with dignity,
Clothe myself using His glory;
Having splendor and majesty,
Before God tells me the whole story.

Please unleash outbursts of Your wrath,
Look at all the arrogance said;
Stop the leaders within their path,
That contradicts Your Word instead.

Look at all who are arrogant,
Crush the wicked and make humble;
Conform those who are militant,
So that their egos do crumble.

Hide them and cover their faces,
Covered completely by the dust;
Destroying their hidden places,
Allowing to corrode and rust.

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.
