Certainly, the Buddhadharma is compassionate and responsive, but you must follow it step by step. When it is not the right time, you will not receive the effect that you desire. When the time is right, the effect will naturally be there. The same is true for both good and bad effects. We reap what we sow! So, do not worry. The string of cause and effect will never be faulty.

Thereafter, they will return to this world, as well as to all the lands in the Ten Directions, to deliver sentient beings.

When our practices do not go smoothly, it is due to obstacles stemming from our past offenses. This is due to our karma created over the infinite past—the negative karma outweighs the good. In this case, when you want to cultivate virtues, you encounter hardships and obstacles. But when you wish to do bad deeds, you are full of energy.
