THE SANBALLATS AND TOBIAHS OF LIFE
Every big thing did not just blossom in a day. It had a beginning and went through stages to reach its current stage.
The path to greatness is not all so smooth. There are and will always be obstacles to hinder you from moving on. But as to whether you get to your destination depends on your determination and values.
Positive mindset is what you need to get to the top. Not undermining but seeing yourself to be whom you've always wanted to be. That is the vehicle to greatness. Surround yourself always with words of encouragement, words are powerful and carry life. When men think its all said and done with you, give them a reason to rethink. You are the architect of your own life. Always bear in mind, the fall of a man isn't the end of his life and get back on your feet whenever you fall.
Don't allow others to write and conclude your script. Design your own life and finish the script on a good note by consulting the original author of your script, GOD.
Once God hasn't concluded on you yet, you have no reason to conclude on yourself. For His plans are not to destroy but to prosper you. Seek guidance and directions from Him through prayer and trust Him to see you through. Always remember, there is no impossibility with God and to him who believes.
As for the Sanballats and Tobiahs, forget them. Your story will not be complete without them. They will always be around to mock and distract you. But when they give you a thousand reasons you should quite, give them ten thousand reasons you should move on. The God who helped Nehemiah overcome them is still there to help you overcome and win. Trust Him.
