Truth Poem
If we listen but do not hear, are we but a leaf blowing aimlessly in the wind?
If we speak but do not say anything are we but a clanging symbol in which one holds its ears?
For what we do and what we say are not as important as who we are. The answers are clear within myself. For in the beginning of time lies
the truth. Truth to be told, truth to behold.
For there is more to life than being within oneself.
To give away and to let go of so much would be gaining more than you’ve ever thought.
Truth is something that cannot be bought.
Only the thing that we all have sought.

Sherri has now taught art and has been a guest speaker at various conferences and churches all around the U.S. and South Africa.
Life with her husband Jeff of 25 years and three fabulous children: Ryan, Cole and Peyton, has been a true blessing. They live in Cypress, Texas and love serving in their local church and community. She says "love is the tapestry that weaves this life forming a beautiful picture.” Sherri has a true gift for the written word and has a wonderful artistic eye for the beauty in this life. She will continue using all of her giftings as God leads so that He may be glorified.
