SOMMER FAMILY BLESSING

Welcome to the blog for Linda Sommer.

My Blog will cover three subjects:

WORD FROM THE LORD, FAMILY, and MINISTRY.

WORD FROM THE LORD
Every day I spend time with the Lord in the morning and He speaks to my heart words that are encouraging, exhorting and sometimes rebuking.

At first, I felt not to share these words with others, but then I realized I am just one of His followers. There are many people who need a word daily from the Lord, but they do not have the time to seek Him. This is why I decided to share the words I received from time to time. The messages are in first person as the the Lord relayed them to my spirtual ears.

FAMILY
We have three sons and nine grandchildren. There is something new happening all the time in the Sommer family. I will post some of these events of interest.

MINISTRY
Tom and I have traveled the world. To find out more about our ministry you may consult our webpage -

I will keep you updated on future speaking enagements and ministry developments.

IMPATIENCE

Only My Spirit can help you grow in patience.  Longsuffering is a fruit of My Spirit that develops as you encounter different trials.  Longsuffering or patience also develops when you are forbearing with other people who are difficult.

During your lifetime, you will encounter many difficult people.  When those difficult people do not agree with your plans, it is your responsibility to respond to them with gentleness and kindness instead of reacting to them.  It is the root of pride that causes you to become angry and upset with those who do not want to institute your plans.

The way to pull down the stronghold of pride is simply to humble yourself and esteem the difficult person who does not agree with you higher than yourself.  Then submit all of your plans to Me, and allow Me to speak to your heart what is My plan.  Do not assume that your plan is always My plan.
It takes time alone with Me for Me to present My plans to you.  I spent much time with My Father in prayer before I was able to determine what His plans were for Me.

GALATIANS 5:22-23; PHILIPPIANS 2:3
