Mama Always ~ L.A. Brown, Author

Well, probably the one of the most close Presidential races on records is now in the history books and the Incumbent remains. For some its a victory, for others, well to be honest, shock, tears and even harsh words are on their agendas. This ought not be so! In Romans 13 , we are encouraged to "submit" to those in authority; 13.   Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except by God's appointment, and the authorities that exist have been instituted by God. 2. So the person who resists such authority resists the ordinance of God..... There are more verses that pretty much say the same thing, that regardless of who is in the White House that we are to pray for him, submit to him (as long as his law does not supersede God's laws), and as much as possible to live peaceably with all men. To have God's children and His People Israel rebel, engage in name calling or grumbling is not where we need to be.  I wil...

OK, shameless snagging of a movie film title, but it was pretty appropriate for the dream that I had while I slept last night. For the most part, when I dream I rarely remember the details. On the rare occasion that I do remember them, they seldom make sense. This one was so vivid, so intense that I couldn't help but remember it, even six hours later. In the movie that I reference above, Robin Williams experiences Heaven itself after he is killed in an automobile crash. The colors and experiences are beyond what his mortal mind can completely comprehend. In my dream, the colors were fairly normal, but what I saw was something that was beyond my imagination and was so compelling that I think it will be a while if ever that I forget what I saw. In my dream, and this part is a bit sketchy, but I think that I was in a store or a restaurant. Wherever it was there was quite a number of people there. I was with a friend, it is not clear who it was...as I am recounting, there are a f...

Currently, I am reading a book called The Harbinger and quite frankly I have to admit that it is interesting. That said, however, I will tell you that as in the Left Behind series of books, I will take this as fiction through and through. I cannot deny that there are some interesting facts that have been presented, but the Bible says that for a prophet to be considered from Him, that he first must be able to pass muster, so to speak. The prophet who claims to have revelation from God must have a spotless record, that is, everything must come to pass with 100% accuracy. Period.  To me, I would think that is the only qualification that there must be. (Deuteronomy 18:21-22   21  And if you say in your heart, ‘How shall we know the word which the  Lord  has not spoken?’—  22  when a prophet speaks in the name of the  Lord , if the thing does not happen or come to pass, that  is  the thing which the  Lord  has not spoken; the proph...
