For the eyes of the LORD
are on the righteous,
And His ears are open to their
prayers;
But the face of the LORD is against
those who do evil."

And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good?
But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you are blessed. And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled."
1 Peter 3:12-14

It is tough to suffer for righteousness' sake; think about it, that usually, if not always, means you are suffering for someone else or for God - countless numbers of people have lost their lives because of their faith. Don't internalize it, count your blessings, the reward is in heaven.
Oh yeah, be tough. There are evil people out there that wish to do you harm. Know that God is with you and will protect you.  Tell God that you love Him.

The LORD bless you and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.

Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Please read your Bible.
