When Sanballat, Tobiah, and an Arab named Geshem heard what we were planning to do, they laughed at us and said, \u201cWhat do you think you’re doing? Are you going to rebel against the emperor?\u201d – Nehemiah 2:19<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Moths gather around flames. Bad eggs float in water. Dogs return to their vomit. The earth revolves around the sun…<\/p>\n

…and anytime you announce a plan to do anything remarkable, The 3 Stooges show up to laugh at you: Sanballat, Tobias and Geshem. <\/p>\n

Sanballat means “strength”. Tobias means “tribal”. Geshem means “rain”.<\/p>\n

It’s a 3 pronged attack featuring brute strength and intimidation…shaming you into conforming to the norms of the tribe…and dampening your enthusiasm to snuff out the flame of your passion.<\/p>\n
