60 Seconds of Hope with Horace McMillon
It Was Worth It
It Was Worth It
“So therefore, none of you can become my disciple if you do not give up all your possessions.” -Luke 14:33
32 years ago I moved to Chicago to attend seminary. It wasn’t something I particularly wanted to do. But in my heart I knew I needed to.
I wanted to answer my calling and live my purpose. But I also wanted to live my life. So, I went to school full time, and worked full time.
Got myself promoted. Got a real nice place too. But working 50-60 hours a week, and going to school full time, and the four hour round trip commute on school days…
As the new school year approached, I knew I had to make a choice. I gave my notice and quit my job. I gave up my lease. I called Good Will and gave away everything that couldn’t fit in a car.
No job. No money. No place of my own. A grown man in a little dorm room. I had to give it all up to get to the place I was supposed to be, to become who I was supposed to be, to find the work I was supposed to do.
I gave up everything I thought was important to me at the time. It was worth it.
I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.
