• ANC Youth Leaugue Coordinator Kanyiso Gwarubana writes in his personal capacity:
“Whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister. And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant” (Matthew 20:26-27).
This scripture underscores the responsibility of selfless service as a key to greatness.
Today the Lord is letting us know that whoever must be great should be a servant or a minister.
Now, the word “minister” as used above is from the Greek word “diakonos” which means an attendant, one who serves or runs errands for others; one who renders selfless service.
You’ve been called to service; both to God and to mankind.
God is mindful and concerned about people more than anything else.
Thus, when you serve people through your work, the Lord will be mindful of you and bless you.
He’ll cause everything you do to prosper.
The Bible says there’s profit in all labour (Proverbs 14:23).
In other words, when you faithfully render service, you’ll surely prosper.
You may be a policeman, a civil servant, or even the chief executive of a corporation.
It doesn’t matter what job or business you do, when your goal is to render quality and selfless service, your greatness will be inevitable.
Greed has stopped many from serving their nation and people as they should.
Don’t let that be your story.
Don’t let the desire for excessive and inordinate gain be your driving force in life.
Become motivated by the joy of service.
Be inspired by the importance and relevance of your job or business towards the betterment of your society.
Make yourself needed, relevant and indispensable to your generation by choosing to serve, for that is the pathway to greatness.
All ANC members in the Province have vowed to be guided by the good spirit of working hard at improving the lives of our people for the next decade.

We will be appreciating the present democracy and rekindling and renewing our vows of patriotic hope for the bright future and a better life for all, thanking almighty God for this opportunity.
Please Vote ANC to take the country forward and mend on the mistakes of the past.
Indeed, led by ANC we have a good story tell, especially here in the West Rand.
