True Light

Date:

We are certain that we know,
Jesus Christ if we obey;
And that we also will show,
Homage to Him each day.

If we know but not obey,
We make His teaching a lie;
In the dark we go astray,
The truth enters not the eye.

The truth is not in that man,
Who never obeys the Lord;
For it is not in His plan,
Allows Him to be ignored.

But whoever obeys Christ,
Is filled with perfected love;
And will never be enticed,
By the things not from above.

Then we know He is within,
And we are also in Him;
Because of no room for sin,
Since we have spiritual vim.

I give you a commandment,
Which is coming from the start;
That will put you in alignment,
Between the Lord and your heart.

I write the truth that exists,
For the darkness is fading;
Because the true light persists,
Brightly illuminating.

Who says they are in the light,
But hate other believers;
Darkness is still in their sight,
They are not Christ receivers.

To love other believers,
Then you do live in the light;
Are salvation receivers,
Having spiritual insight.

For those who live in the light,
Your faith cannot be destroyed;
Not even the dark of night,
Will letting it be annoyed.

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.
