Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on, uh huh, I sure will come maring everybody
you're listening to the voice, come on, dig me now,
one and all that Steve Harvey man oh man got
a radio show, yep.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Trying to make it work too. I'm not trying. I'm
I'm getting it. I'm getting it done to the best
of my abilities. Now, something funny my father taught me.
He says, So when you've done all you can do,
if you've done your absolute best and you look up
(00:35):
and it didn't get the job done, take a deep
breath and do some more. That used to bug me, man,
when my father used to tell me, that's the son,
when you've done your absolute best and you think you
can't do no more, you've done all you can and
it still don't get the job done.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Take yourself a deep breath and do some more.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
And you know what I found that has worked every
single time, every single time, because what my father knew
was that what you think is your breaking point, or
what you think is your all in all, he says, son,
it's just something about it. Man, If you just gather yourself,
(01:28):
you got a little bit more. Everybody got some more,
and I you know, I gotta be honest with you.
It has worked. It has helped me greatly, and you
know it. Everybody does have some more, you know. I
tell that to my sons all the time. Dad, I
did my best. Well, let mens you something else. Could
(01:50):
you have done anything else?
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Could you have.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Studied a little harder, Could you have shown up a
little bit earlier, could you stayed a little bit later? Yeah,
well then okay, that's what you should have done. Then See,
there's always a way. But if you're going to create excuses,
if you're gonna make them up all the time about
why you don't get it done, I have a very,
(02:14):
very sad a statement for you right now. You're never
gonna get anything done. You're never gonna get to the top,
not to the top. You can get halfway up now,
you can get a third of the why up, you
can get three quarters of the whey up. But if
you don't have that little extra reserve in you, you're
(02:35):
not getting to the top. The top is only reserved
for those that have the wherewithal and the power to desire,
the drive and the gut riching effort to get to
the top. The top is reserved only for the top.
It's just the top. There ain't but one top, then
(02:56):
the middle done, ain't it? You know? The top At
the top of the mountain, halfway is a different view.
At the top, things look different from up top. So
if you want to get to the top of whatever
your profession, your field, your career, whatever it is, you
got to do extra. You have to do more. More
(03:21):
is expected of you. More, but his is what's really crazy.
More is required of you. Don't live your life in
a lasadaisical state. Don't wake up every day with the
feeling of, well, you know, whatever happens happens. No man
have a say so in your life.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
You.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
First of all, let me ask you something. Who has
God named the person that God has given authority over you?
Name the person? But who is the person? Nobody has
domain over you? God didn't create that person. So what
you're sitting here for? Man, what are you sitting here
(04:01):
for letting people who do not know direct your path?
Why are you worried about all these people with what
they got to say about you and all these people
with what they got to think about you? When here's
the news flash, they don't know either. All these people
that you overly concerned about all these people.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
That you go into these answers for, they need answers
to stop.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
What are you doing here? Gather yourself for a minute.
Here is a solution to all of that. You have
one source that will be there for you to the
end of time, and that is your relationship with God.
That is the one thing that's solid and for show.
He's behind the wall. He's in your jail cell. He
(04:53):
rides with you in the police car. He's with you
on your job up at school. He's down there in
the ball meetings with you. He goes with you when
you travel on plains. He says with you when you're
in a relationship. He helps you with your parenting skills.
He helps you. He's there to assist you. He show
if you do the right things, he show you and
(05:14):
guide you to your next job. When you lose your
job and you think it's a rap, there's some good
behind it.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Man.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
God is always working on your behalf. To those that
believe you, just gotta believe. He don't ask you for
nothing else. Believe in me. That's all he asks you
to do. What you're tripping for.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Man.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And then when you make the decision to believe in him,
and it comes out your mouth from time to time
somewhere What you're worried about, what people say. What you're
worried about what they think?
Speaker 3 (05:42):
For? Why? Who are they? They need God?
Speaker 2 (05:45):
To you telling them you found something new that you're
gonna give this a shot right here. Now, they got
some yang ying yang and some yak of the yakh
to say about that when they need God too. That's
what amazes me, man about people sit up in here, man,
be knocking your dream and stuff. Look, if you're an atheist, man,
do your thing, do your thing. But you can't create
(06:06):
no laws. Well I can't do mine. That don't make
no sense. Man, that makes no sense at all to me.
You have the right to go be whatever you want
to be. You know if you don't you don't like
the fact that I'm in school, got my head bowed
down and I'm saying a prayer for I take this test.
Just don't buy your head. Don't you pray? But if
(06:27):
some kids want to get together, that's some crazy mess.
That's what happened in our schools. We took praier out
of schools. Now, look at our schools. You send your
child to school and someone else comes back home. That's
a whole nother thing right here. That's not what I
want to talk to you about. But I was just
throwing it out because you know, hey, man, your relationship
(06:48):
with God is essential to your success as a person.
It's essential to your existence. It's essential to where you're
trying to go and what you're trying to be. Because
He made you. Why would you I talk to the
person that made you to find out what he created
you for. I ain't talking about your parents, who made
your parents. This is God, we created in his image.
(07:12):
Why would you not talk to your maker to see
why you got made? That don't make sense to you.
If you're sitting and gotten yourself in a situation, you
sitting in the jail cell somewhere, you locked up, you
doing some time, man, be a good time for you
to reflect. But whatever your situation is, Man, God can
(07:33):
get you through it. He can give you the strength,
the courage to wherewith all the understanding everything you need,
the wisdom to get you through anything you going through.
You just got a touch base with him. I need
God every single day of my life and what He's
done for me.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
Man, off the chain. But guess what he'll do the
same thing for you. It's Steve Harvey Morning Show.
