Works that witness

What people should realise is that being at the helm makes one
vulnerable to critics, analysts and reporters, in fact
everyone would be watching your every move and your life becomes
an open book for  everyone to read. It is therefore imperative that
people at the helm do their work perfectly and be blameless in their
behaviour. They should have works that witness if they want to 
silence everyone from pointing out their mistakes.

This reminds me of the story of Daniel in the bible. Daniel 6:3-4
Daniel conducted himself so well and so honorably in his high office that
Darius gave thought of setting him over the whole realm. The other
presidents and princes, however, were jealous and began to devise means
of getting rid of Daniel. But hard as they tried, they could find nothing in
his life to use against him. The bible says that he was faithful nor was there
any error or fault found in him.
What a record! What a testimony! He was loyal and conscientious on the job
-all the while giving God first place. Daniel's life was so far above reproach
that his enemies had to create a situation in which his commitment to God
would come into conflict with his government position.

Would you stand up under close examination like this? Are we so faithful
in our work that our fellow employees could find no charge or fault in us.?
It's commendable to witness for Christ. But consider the influence of a
godly life and a job so faithfully performed that others could find no fault.
That would certainly silence the critics  and glorify God.

So when you are up there at the helm and you don't want the Eusebias of
this world to tell the truth about your works make sure that your works
are above reproach, are blameless. Otherwise you might end up sounding
like a broken record from having to ask again and again, " Eusebia, who do
you think you are?" when I publish your mistakes on my blog.
