Work Description

Date:

I am so happy to suffer,
For everyone of you now;
Because of my faith will buffer,
Whatever God will disallow.

In my body I will complete,
Whatever that maybe remains;
To bear what Christ did not defeat,
And continue where my faith gains.

I am doing this for His sake,
Of His body which is the church;
Staying vigilant and awake,
As I am extending my search.

I am a servant for the church,
Since God has given me a chore;
Through the Scriptures I will research,
For the key to open the door.

So I can tell you the whole message,
Not just a small portion of it;
So you are given free passage,
Through your belief and your merit.

The past had hid this mystery,
But at last it has been revealed;
And can go back in history,
For reviewing what has been sealed.

God wanted all of us to know,
All of the glorious treasures;
Which the living Jesus can show,
Giving you hope through His pleasures.

I spread the message about Christ,
To train and teach everyone;
On how we must be sacrificed,
With all the wisdom of the Son.

So I work hard, struggle to do,
While His power works on me;
For telling you all that is true,
With His insight so I can see.

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.
