WHATEVER YOUR ARE BE A GOOD ONE;

A nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people. John F. Kennedy

“Taifa letu – taifa lolote – ni zuri na mahali pazuri pa kuishi kama raia wake watalifanya liwe hivyo. Uongozi wake unaweza kuwa mzuri, mbaya au usiojali lakini kama watu wake wameamka (ki-elimu?) na wanajitambua, haitachukua muda mrefu kuwakilisha mtazamo wa jamii na kubadili mawazo na matumaini ya taifa.” Julius Kambarage Nyerere

50 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE AND HOW WE VIEW OUR JOB RESPONSIBILITIES



As we celebrate our 50 years of independence Nyerere was aware that, Work is part of the God’s creation. To be a good worker is therefore a blessing;
God wants us to find meaning, purpose and fulfillment in any kind of work we are talented in our work places. This is possible if only we are going to integrate godly principles in our jobs;
God reminds us that our work is in his hands although sometimes it is hard and frustrating, still we need to be thankful.
The parable of the talents shows that God is still asking us to be fruitful and productive. This parable presents a clear demand from God for a return, and the greatest return often exposes us to the greatest risk. Things like fighting for corruption, brings social welfare for our people, be honest, be accountable be responsible and be wise is want God is asking us to do in our different positions we hold.

WHAT GOD EXPECTS US AS WE PERFORM OUR JOBS?
1. Know that we are anointed for the job or position you now hold. God uses ordinary circumstances as a training ground to perfect our character.  Fight for corruptions and embezzlements for the benefit of nation and in fulfilling your anointment as we celebrate the 50 years of independence. 

2. Don't expect to be appreciated. God values humility and servant hood, not pride and entitlement. Most politicians are looking for more pride and always they want to be seen as worldly gods;

3. Embrace opportunities for change. May we reach the stage of maturity when we are no longer surprised by change? 

4. Do the job well while remembering the vision. The secret to performing your duties well where you are is to maintain a vision of where you're headed. If we can focus on this we can avoid all the problem of power shortage and poor infrastructures and social welfare which make the nation to remain poor.

5. Don't let the environment get inside us. To counter bad political attitudes, behavior, which can promote chaos in the society; let our politicians use the parliament for the benefit of nation and not for the development of themselves and their political parties.
6. Increase our capacity to work with difficult personalities. Too often we only try to fit in and connect with others similar to us. Let us use our differences in policy for developing people and not for benefiting our individualism; 

7. Where we are now is not where we are going. Be peaceful while progressive let us solve problem facing the nation with integrity and accountability. 

8. Achieve optimal results with minimal confusion. We spend too much time trying to compensate for our weaknesses rather than capitalizing on our strengths. 

GOD BLESS US AS WE  ARE IN CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE BY CONTINUNING WITH HARD WORKING; AND BE HONEST AND TRUE TO ONE ANOTHER;
