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.

INTROSPECTIVE

Many of My beloved spend too much time judging themselves and comparing their spiritual growth with others.  This is not My desire for them.  I long for My beloved to see themselves as I see them.  True humility is seeing yourself as I see you.  I see My beloved dressed in My robes of righteousness, walking My paths of righteousness, and glorifying Me.  Remember when Peter looked at his circumstances and saw that he was sinking into the water, he lost his ability to walk on water.

I want you to walk on water, and this will not happen if you constantly take your eyes off of Me and put them on yourself.  You become like Me as you behold My glory.  This takes time every day.  When you miss those one on one times with Me, you will easily fall into Satan's trap of self-condemnation.  I do not condemn you when you miss your quiet times with Me.  I never condemn you.

If you have missed several mornings spent in My presence, just make it your goal to meet with Me this morning.  Faith only works in the now.  Peter had faith that worked for a little while, but he did not have sustaining faith.  This is why I prayed that his faith fail not.  Through his experience of denying Me, he finally realized that he had to depend totally upon Me to give him sustaining faith.  He finally got this message after Pentecost and from that point on he operated in My faith, not his own.

LUKE 22:32; GALATIANS 2:20 (KJV)
