Worrywart

Date:

Do not become preoccupied,
You know evildoers have lied;
Do not envy the wicked things,
There is no enjoyment it brings.

They will quickly dry up like grass,
Evaporate just like a gas;
Wither away like plants of green,
Then turning brown like you have seen.

Trust in the Lord and do good things,
And watch all the blessings it brings;
Practice as faithful in the land,
Firmly planted right where you stand.

Always be happy in the Lord,
Show that He is loved and adored;
He gives desires of the heart,
Through His Word that you would impart.

Entrust your ways onto the Lord,
Never letting His Word be ignored;
He will act on your benefit,
Trusting in Him through your merit.

He will make your righteousness shine,
Warmth from a light tickles the spine;
Your just cause like the noonday sun,
Comforted by the Anointed One.

Surrender yourself to the Lord,
Let not His calling be ignored;
As long as you trust and obey,
For you will succeed in His way.

Let go of anger, leave behind,
No more rage so always be kind;
It would only lead to evil,
Under control of the devil.

For evil doers shall be cut,
The door to Heaven will be shut;
Locking them from eternal hope,
To slip and slide the downward slope.

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.
