#Repost @bethelmusicbelievers • • • • • • Remembing @chadwickboseman for his inspiring message to Howard University's graduating class of 2018. He began his 34 minute message by "first, giving honor to the Creator". In the middle of the speech he shared the story of his rocky road to success and how he had to have faith in God during the difficult time. Boseman explained that he was chosen for a role on a soap opera, but it came with playing the role of a stereotypical black man whose father was absent and mum was on heroin. After questioning producers on the character's background he was let go from the job. Although he said it was very disappointing, he was willing to lose the gig if it paved the way for better roles. He then quoted 1 Corinthians 3:6: "As the Scripture says, I planted the seed, and Apollos watered it. But God kept growing-God kept it growing," Boseman said. "Yet and still, when you invest in a seed, watching it grow without you, that is a bitter pill to swallow." He added: "Sometimes you need to feel the pain and sting of defeat to activate the real passion and purpose that God predestined inside of you”. #chadwickboseman https://www.instagram.com/p/CEgAL7UJwzEoFfuzeJLxjk_k30uxtEIAhM9XAU0/?igshid=1gq5iakgpve56
