Keep the love of Christ in your heart, no matter what the world does to you.
“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me.” (John 15:18-21)
It’s a humbling experience to know that we have been chosen by God almighty himself! His spirit has to remind me of this fact from time to time when I start to think it’s the other way around!
