The word surrender means to give up possession or power. When I came to Earth, I gave up My power in glory to come to live with you. I surrendered totally to My Father's will. I gave up everything I had in heaven in order to provide everything for you.
I had human feelings and even though I knew that I had to die to provide forgiveness for your sins, it was a battle for Me to finally surrender to My Father's will. I knew that all the sins of the whole world would be placed upon Me, and I knew that My heart would break under that pressure. However, the Holy Spirit empowered Me to pray, "Abba, Father, all things are possible to You; take away this cup from Me: nevertheless not what I will, but what You will."
I needed the Holy Spirit to help Me surrender, and you also daily need the power of the Holy Spirit to help you surrender to My Father's will for you. Today, ask the Holy Spirit to help you surrender completely to My Father's will. When you do this, My Spirit will not only give you the desire to do My Father's will, but also the power to obey My Father's will.

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.
