Today the news came as a sad reminder of how dangerous our
world can be. The former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Benazir
Bhutto, died today from the bullets of an Islamic extremist in
Pakistan. Her passion to see a change in Pakistan is what drove her
to risk and, even lose, her life.
The change she so passionately fought and died for had to do with
the fair treatment of those less fortunate in Pakistan.
About half of the Pakistani people are without education and are
living below the poverty line. Benazir Bhutto, though a Harvard
graduate and well-to-do Pakistani herself, took on the burden of
making a change to that sad reality.
However, I have to admit, when I started to see her on the nightly
news, a few months ago, I thought to myself that she would eventually
be killed for doing what she was trying to do.
There are too many extremist in Pakistan!
Finally, her death today reminded me about a word spoken by a very
wise Jewish man in which he said, "Unless a seed dies it will not
bring forth any harvest." (Yeshua/Jesus, A.D. 31-33)
Let the death of Benazir Bhutto be that seed which sparks a harvest
of positive change in Pakistan.
Now Benazir Bhutto, Rest (I hope) In Peace!
