Justness and sincerity stemmed from the basic value called honesty. Honesty
leads not only to justness and sincerity but also to loyalty, fairness and truth.
According to CSC an honest bureaucracy is the sine qua non for an honest
government and honesty in government is essential for the effectivity in working
for public welfare.
Honesty is reinforced by this verse from the Bible (Luke 16:10) –“Whoever
is faithful in small matters will be faithful in large ones; whoever is dishonest in
small matters will be dishonest in large ones.” Ponder about it.
Do you think it is right when you get small things not on your own? It is
dishonesty. And it is still dishonesty when you are not true or faithful in a
relationship.
Jesus said (John 8:32) “The truth shall make you free”.
When you tell the truth, it does not need any defense or justifications. If you
are firm to your commitments and values, if you know where your heart is, it will
be easy for your body to follow. This means if the truth is your heart, then it will
be easy for you to be honest in small and big ways.
