Thinking about God helps tremendously for me when I'm in that situation. I guess every one will have their few moments of doubt, and non-acceptance by your group.

God will accept you and love you unconditionally. When I tell myself even if the whole world don't appreciate what I do, God knows and He loves me. It makes my emotions settled immediately.
