When you set out to do something for God, you will encounter many obstacles. You will experience many  hindrances in your quest to accomplish something great. People will try to stop you, lack of resources will discourage your mission, you will experience many ups and downs along the way. Keep in mind that nothing good comes easily. You must not allow Satan and his cohorts to prevent you from achieving God's purpose. Apostle Paul wrote,
"I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us."
 - Philippians 3:14

Because Paul used to murder Christians, people gave him a difficult time when God first called him into ministry - because they weren't used to this new Paul. But Paul didn't quit the ministry God had entrusted to him. He worked even harder for God. When Paul had a disagreement with Barnabas, he didn't quit - he continued working. My point is; when things got "complicated", Paul persevered.
No matter how "complicated", difficult or discouraging things get - whether at work, church, home, or simply in life, you must also persevere. Don't backslide just because someone refuses to accept the new you. Don't quit that thing just because it is too hard, and please, don't ever walk away from any opportunity God gives you - just because someone disapproves. You should only seek God's approval anyway :)
You will miss out on the actual prize if you quit life too early. May God continue to bless you and your families!
***Happy Wednesday Everyone!***
