The Ultimate Good

Date:

Be joyful in the Lord,
As no trouble for me;
For He is not ignored,
Like some too blind to see.

For writing the same thing,
As I do through each day;
The safety that will bring,
When you trust and obey.

Beware of evil things,
Beware those who insist;
Because of what it brings,
Ensure that you resist.

We are the true people,
We serve as we take pride;
As states in the Gospel,
We adhere and abide.

For we serve the Spirit,
Take pride in Jesus Christ;
Seen in our merit,
How much we sacrificed.

There is no confidence,
In the physical things;
But helps in the defense,
That the devil brings.

For I am a pure blood,
Living to the standard;
And witness to the flood,
As written in the Word.

I am so passionate,
When it comes to the church;
In being affectionate,
In the Scripture to search.

Once what thought of value,
Now are worthless through Christ;
So I discontinue,
No more getting enticed.

I threw it all away,
In order to gain Christ;
No longer will I stray,
Jesus, I am sufficed.

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.
