Burale: I want to die empty. I don’t want people to remember me for the kind of watch or shoes I wore

Though know for his nice suits, watch and general fashion sense, Pastor Burale has shared that those are things he’d rather not be remembered for when he dies.

“I want to die empty. If God gave me the privilege of being a guest of honour at my funeral, would I like what people would say? Nobody knows the kind of suit Nelson Mandela wore. But if you have read his autobio, ‘Long walk to freedom’, you know what we are talking about. I don’t want people to remember me for the kind of watch or shoes I wore but the many lives I changed.”

Warning

The pastor also went on to warn young gospel artists such as Willy Paul who have been slowly drifting away from their calling.

“Nobody is perfect but as a young gospel artiste, [you should] hide under the blood of Jesus. Don’t do showbiz for yourself. The Bible is clear, lift Jesus,” Burale said.

“But maybe it’s wrong company or fame is getting into your head. Always remember, it’s not about you, it’s about Jesus.”
