Don't Look for Human Approbation

Don't expect people's applause for your work.  What is more, sometimes you must not even expect other people and institutions, who like you are working for Christ, to understand you.  Seek only the glory of God, and while loving everyone, don't worry if there are some who do not comprehend what it is you are doing. 

(Father Francis Fernandez)
