All that we have is for him. We give him the best of ourselves,\u201d he said, adding, \u201cThat is how we create hope. When we create hope, we\u00a0 serve others with all we have, with all the strength, with all the wealth, that everything is given\u00a0 for the Lord and the good of others. That is all for the glory of God.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bishop Kadima also called upon Christians \u201cespecially those who are older, who are more talented, who are given offices like mine\u201d to be guiding stars to others, saying, \u201cYou have to guide others to reach Jesus, to reach God, to reach the success of their lives, and to reach their happiness. Someone following you will not be misled, and he will not be lost.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said that reliability is required of those who guide others, adding, \u201cWe have to be reliable stars to be looked at to bring hope. People look at us that each one of us leads others. Most of us are family people here. We have to give direction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bishop Kadima urged Christians to lead by example, noting that authentic witness is itself a source of hope. \u201cPeople who are fake, who are liars, who don\u2019t keep promises, mislead others. Hope is the example that all of us have to live. And that example is the hope that people look at, that is the star,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Catholic Church leader highlighted gratitude and contentment as hallmarks of hopeful people. He warned against constant complaining and entitlement, encouraging believers to recognize when they have received enough and to take responsibility by producing more in their lives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople of great hope are grateful. They are happy, satisfied. No more questions, no more complaints,\u201d he said, and added, \u201cA hopeful person is one who says thank you. You have done for me, now its me to work. It is me now to produce, let me go back and work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>                    <a href=\"#\"><br \/>\n                      <img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius: 50%; margin: 0; width: 75px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/sabrine01_1748379247.jpeg\" alt=\"Sabrine Amboka\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n                    <\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Sabrine Amboka is a Kenyan journalist with a passion for Catholic church communication.
