Mother Wims will always hold a special place in my heart. She taught me how to not just say, but to do. As Bethany Baptist Church Missionaries, she and I made many nursing home visits together. She was usually the first to arrive and always ready to share the Word of God. There were times when I felt I was just too tired or in too much pain to show up; but I knew that Mother Wims, who was 30 years older, would let nothing stop her from the scheduled nursing home visit. She was my inspiration to push through and do the work I had pledged to do. Mother Wims always met me with a warm smile and radiated love. It was obvious that she counted it all joy to serve the Lord. She was engaging, had a listening ear, and was always encouraging. She was a mighty prayer Warrior, with a ready testimony. No matter what situation I asked her to pray about; she would pray with me immediately, and say everything will be alright if you just put it in God's hands. I never heard her say an unkind word about anyone . She was just a sweetheart. I loved her. Thinking of her makes me smile. I know that her family and friends will miss her. My condolences go out to them. But, I am happy knowing that Mother Wims, my Sister in Christ, has been welcomed home; and , if I follow the example that she set for me, I will see her again.
I pray that God will comfort her family.
