Good and upright God
Psalm 25:8
Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way

The verse above says God is good (kind) and upright (strictly honest and honorable).

A songwriter wrote that:

Ascribe greatness to the Lord our rock
His way is perfect and all His ways are just
Our God of faithfulness
And without injustice
Good and upright is He

The song summarizes the very important attributes or characteristics of God.

God sees everything, when he called Moses in Exodus 3:7 God says
…I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrow;

In the same way, God sees everything we go through and hears our cries for help, as a good and upright God he always plans our deliverance.

You may be ridiculed in school because you do not dress, talk or behave like your friends. Perhaps you are always trying to tell them about Christ. Do not get discouraged, continue doing the right thing and at the appointed time, God will reward you ( Galatians 6:9) by making your friends see that you are on the right path.

Or you might be seen as queer at work because of your lifestyle. Do not get discouraged, continue lifting the banner of Christ and all things will eventually work for your good.(Romans 8:28)

Even in christian ministry, every spiritual leader has his style, do not be intimidated, present the gospel as you are led.
1Corinthians 12:5-6 says
There are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
God be with you
