True works of God always meet opposition
Advice of the Blessed Fr. Sopocko
(Spiritual Director to St. Faustina)
"Without humility, we cannot be pleasing to God. Practice the third degree of humility, that is, not only must one refrain from explaining and defending oneself when reproached with something, but one should rejoice at the humiliation. If the things you are telling me really come from God, prepare your soul for great suffering. You will encounter disapproval and persecution. They will look upon you as a hysteric and an eccentric, but the Lord will lavish His graces upon you. True works of God always meet opposition and are marked by suffering. If God wants to accomplish something, sooner or later He will do so in spite of the difficulties. Your part, in the meantime, is to arm yourself with great patience".
