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.

JUSTICE

I judge the hearts of men and I do justice. I also am merciful. David wrote: "Justice and judgment are the habitation of My throne: mercy and truth shall go before My face."

I always mete My judgments with mercy.  Only I can see the hearts of men.  You cannot.  However, you can judge a person by their godly fruits.

I would that none perish, but that all would come to repentance.  Pray for the salvation of those who have yet to be born again. Pray that they receive My salvation so that they can bear much fruit before they die.

PSALM 89:14

DISCIPLINE

The word, "discipline" has the beginning of the word, "disciple."  If you want to disciple others, you must be disciplined. The good news is that you can ask My Holy Spirit to help you discipline yourself.

It truly takes the help of My Holy Spirit to discipline yourself because your flesh resists even the word, "discipline."  I want you to discipline yourself to abide in Me, My Word, and My love.

If you truly want to disciple others, ask My Holy Spirit help you to daily read, memorize, meditate and obey My Word.  Ask Him to place My love in your heart.  Ask Him to form My character in you.

ROMANS 8:26

DEEDS

The day will come when I will render to every man according to his deeds.  To those who know Me, the deeds that have been done through Me will be rewarded.

The works and deeds that I desired for you to do were written in your Book of Life before you were born. They were written even before the foundation of the earth.

There are works that I designed for you to accomplish in your life on earth.  You are My workmanship created in Me to do good works.  Ask My Holy Spirit daily to help you accomplish these works.

ROMANS 2:6;  EPHESIANS 2:10

RECEIVE

Your responsibility is to share the truths of My gospel - the gospel of the kingdom of God with others. Whether they receive what you share is not your responsibility.  It is Mine.

My beloved cousin was told that many were coming to Me.  John made it clear that he was not the Messiah. Then he said, "A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven."

No man will come to Me unless My Father draws him.  Pray that My Father will draw those you love to receive Me as their LORD and SAVIOR.

JOHN 3:27

SHORT

There is no question that you are in the last days now.  Have I not said that I will do a short work in these dark days?  Yes, I am true to My Word.

I am saving a remnant of true believers in all nations.  This includes Gentile and Jewish true believers.

Isaiah prophesied this about Israel.  He spoke: "For He (Me) will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the LORD make upon the earth."

ROMANS 9:27-33

HEARTS

I am the only One Who can change men's hearts.  I can soften hearts and I can harden hearts.  I want you to pray for your enemies.  

I know how very hard it is for you to pray for your enemies, but understand that I want them to come to know Me also.  

Lift the hearts of your enemies up to Me and ask Me to place My love in their hearts.  My Holy Spirit can do this. When you pray for your enemies, you are praying according to My will and I hear you.

ROMANS 5:5

EXHORTATION

The gift of exhortation is a gift of My Holy Spirit that all of the church needs during these dark end times.  So much evil is being exposed that sometimes I know it is hard to comprehend such wickedness.

I want to exhort you during these times when it seems the whole world is falling apart to keep your eyes upon Me.  I am Your hope and that hope will help anchor your soul from wavering with doubt.

Barnabas, one of My beloved disciples, was a great exhorter.  When he reached Antioch, he exhorted the church to: "with purpose of heart to cleave to Me."  Cleave to Me during these times.

ACTS 11:22-23
