I have heard people say that they have to earn respect by what they do and what they say. One of the key goals of a parent is to teach their children to show respect for themselves and for others. You live in the age of lawlessness. Paul warned Timothy that in the last days people will be lovers of self rather than lovers of Me, children will be disobedient to parents, and ungodly actions by many will occur. Many teachers and parents are amazed at the lack of respect that their children demonstrate toward them.
The underlying reason for lack of respect is that many parents do not teach their children to fear Me.
There is much in My Word about the benefits that come to those who fear Me. When a person fears Me, that person is not afraid of Me. A person who fears Me stands in awe of My greatness, power, and love and respects Me by obeying Me.
Pray for those who believe in Me to teach others to fear Me. The fear of the Lord is taught. It is not caught. When you fear Me, you have a heart that is willing to obey Me, and you are confident that I can give you the power to obey My will.
2 TIMOTHY 3:2-4; PROVERBS 10:27, 14:27, 19:23, 22:4

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.
