People oppose you!
“But I will stay on at Ephesus until Pentecost, because a great door of effective work has opened to me, and there are many who oppose me.” 1 Corinthians 16:8-9
Few people worry about the people doing nothing.
Have you noticed the more you do for good the more opposition you receive?

I remember Thomas A. Edison saying "Restlessness is discontent and discontent is the first necessity of progress. Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure. "
I love that quote.

"Good work doesn’t just find audience; it also finds anti-audience."

Thanks Ron!
I like that. Thanks!
True that, Ron. If you stand for something, you're by default standing against something too.
Thank you!
My pastor tells us that when we are doing God's work, we sometimes get "confirmation through opposition." The enemy has caught wind of it and is trying to discourage us from doing it. This is a great reminder for all of us to not give up in the face of adversity. Thanks.
