Seated Above, Looking Below by Bobby Brown

Bobby Brown

  

"On a summer's Eve in 1976 I had a spiritual awakening. After weeping through the night I awoke the next morning and heard the birds really singing for the first time. I also felt inwardly enriched. The living waters of poetry began to flow like a river and these poems are the result." - Bobby Brown



“I first heard Bobby Brown's wonderful poetry at an Open Mic poetry reading. One evening while I was listening to him share his writings, he said some words that touched my heart and I realized that God used Bob to change my life forever. Bob's words took me on a spiritual journey that led me to learn about my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus! Since that time we have become good friends and his poetry continues to bless my life and I’m sure it will edify everyone else who reads it.” – Rosemary M.



"Seated Above, Looking Below" contains about 200 poems that will take you on a journey, a journey that wanders through the seasons of life and ends in deep spiritual truths. Along the way you will contemplate nature in all it's wonder, the beauty of the New England Seasons and end in a trip through Narnia.


This is Bob's first published book. Interestingly enough, the book title was inspired by scripture – Eph 2:6 which states “And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus.” This is an incredible piece of scripture because it show’s Gods abundant grace towards us – but note the focus is on God; He raised us up and He seated us with Himself. Also, note the tense of the verse! Read it again!
