Pastor Bim – God’s role model to our generation
She definitely did God proud, as a wife, a mother, a pastor, a Christian. We love her and wish she could remain with us forever (till Christ comes calling) but God had other plans. When I heard she had survived the plane crash - I imagined the testimony she will give in church. But that would have been just one person's testimony (with Pastor Bim, we know that's equal to thousands), now in her death millions her talking about her. Not about how beautiful she was but the real testimony is about how she served in God's kingdom.
She served God with passion (even more passion than I had when I first answered God's call) till the very end - she died in battle. All of us who remain must emulate her. I wonder if I can be that passionate about the kingdom of God - but rather than ponder I will act. In my own little way, I will make sure that all she taught and lived is not lost on me. I will seek to please God in all I do.What will people say about me when I die? Would I be remembered for pleasing God and doing His work? Or will I be remembered for living my life?For Pastor Bim - I remember her for living her life which was all about pleasing God. She was God's role model to our generation.
