  Speaker 1: Come on you, ah, I sure will.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Good morning everybody.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: You all listening to the voice, Come on dig me now,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Hell
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Man back in business too, Man Man, How good is God?
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, really, if you think about it in spite
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: of all that's going down in your life. First of all,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: it could be worse. But secondly, sometimes you have to remember.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: And I've just had to have this conversation with myself
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: this morning. That's how I'm fresh on this one right here.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: When a challenge faces you, are you going through a
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: difficult moment, or you didn't hit a bump in the
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: road in the middle of that, if you could manage
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: to be grateful, it would take you a long way.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Gratitude is a powerful resource if you can be grateful
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: in the middle of it. Gratitude is a powerful resource
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: when it's.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: Dim for you.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: And then got a little bumpy on the road, and
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: he ran into some obstacles, and you done ran up
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: into some detailed signs, and your journey ain't smooth as
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: it was last week or last year. You gotta be
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: grateful for the things that are going right and that
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: have gone right, and for the thing that's wrong right now?
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: To get right?
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Man?
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: Can I share that with you?
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Man?
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: Is that a tough one to learn? It is? For me.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: It has been one of my toughest challenges is to
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: learn how to be grateful because it's a powerful resource,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: but how to be grateful in moments of despair when
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: it ain't going right.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: See here's a mistake I would make.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: See when something go wrong, I want to focus on
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: the wrong so much in an attempt to fix it.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: But even then, the focus ain't always in to fix it.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: The focus becomes, Man, this is bad, man, And I
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: can't believe this is happening. Why this keep going down?
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: That doesn't fix anything? You know, mealing over it, going
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: over what's wrong, explaining it, sharing it with your friends,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: you know, making it sound worse than it is, tell
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: the story for pity from other people. All of that,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: right there, has nothing to do with the fix. Sometimes
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: you're just mulling over it. You're just making it worse.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: You're just making it a bigger problem. You're manifesting it
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: into your atmosphere, You're putting it out there in your spirit.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Now all of a sudden it consumes your day. Next thing,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: you know, you're having a bad day. If you're having
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: a bad day, it's because you've been having some bad thoughts.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: So what I've had to learn how to do, and
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: what I'm working on this morning is I'm working on
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: the situation that Ben cropped up. I was going kind
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: of smooth here for a minute and now then got
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: real bumpy in the road, you know, and all this here.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: So what I'm thinking about now though, is even though
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I've hit a bumping the road, and even though I
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: done ran into a detour, and even though I've hit
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: this lull, I'm going down into a valley, I ain't
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: up on the peak.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Can I not.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Still be grateful for all the things that God has
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: given me, for all the things He's done for me,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: for all the things He's bought me through, And realizing
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: that even this that's happening to me again is going
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: to pass to He gonna get me through that too.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Come on, man, God is a good god man. It's
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: a lot to be grateful for. So while I'm tripping
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: on this bumping the road out and here, what I
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: got to remember is all the things He's done for me.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: And like I say, my saying is join depression cannot
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: reside in the same place. So instead of being down
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: about this new bumping the road, if I'm constantly filling
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: my mind with the thoughts of how good he's been
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: to me, of what all he's done for me, of
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: all the things he's brought me through, of all the
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: blessings he's presented me with. When I go down that list,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I really don't have a lot of time to mull
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: over the situation.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Do I have to fix this bump in the row?
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Of course I do. Are There's some things I'm going
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: to have to do to straighten it out. Of course
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: it is. But Steve just going to get the business
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: of doing it and straighten it out. What you mulling
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: over and worrying about it for you know, old people.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: I heard old people say something when I was growing
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: up in the church. They say, if you're gonna pray
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: about it, don't worry about it. But if you're gonna
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: worry about it, don't pray about it. That's an amazing thing.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: And prayer just happens to be my weapon of choice. Now,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: it ain't always been that way. I want you to
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: understand that my first weapon of choice was you do
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: it to me, I do it to you.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: You called me out, I call you out.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: You say something bad about me, I've tried to find
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: you say something bad about you. That was my weapon
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: in the past. How did that work out for you, Steve?
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Not so good? Because you know what, I spent a
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: lot of time fighting back, kicking back, swinging back, when
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: I could have spent all that time climbing. See, all
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: you trying to do at the end of the day, folks,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: is have a better life than the one you got.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: All you trying to do is to improve your position
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: in life. You know, it's not my business to make
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: sure you don't get where you going. I ain't got
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: no time for that. It's not my job to assure
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: that you ain't as high as me. I ain't got
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: no time for that. Your real mission and purpose is
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: to have the best life that you can have, to
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: ascend to the highest plateau that you can get to,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: to make your family as comfortable as you can, to
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: provide as much as you can for your family.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: But legally, see, those.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Of us are sitting up here trying to come up
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: with sideways. You can ask a couple million men sitting
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: in prison today how they wish they hadn't have done that,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: And they'll tell you, oh, man, I wish I never
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: had did it. I knew not to go down there
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: and told me not to go down there. Man, if
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: I could change things, I would. But they sitting somewhere
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: doing some time that had they made another decision, they
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have to do now. That don't make them throw
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: away people, nah, man, because everybody make mistakes, and God
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: is in the forgiving business. And some of us have
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: done some things that really broke the law, and a
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: whole lot of other things and deserve to do some time.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: But through the grace of God, we didn't. But now
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: we sit up here we pass judgment on people who
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: got to do some matter. I don't care. I don't
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: care what you've done. God can forgive anything. But our position,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: our motivation in life is to try to have the
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: best life we can have and provide for those around
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: us and make it comfortable. If that's your ambition, you
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: don't have time to worry about or concern yourself with
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: another person. And I wasted time doing that, and that's
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: not the way to get it done. It's simply mine
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: to your business. Taking care of you and getting yourself
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: right and tight is twenty four seven.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: So that's a full time job.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: So what I had to learn was and what I've
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: the reason I've chosen prayers as my weapon of choice
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: now is that now prayer helps me that I don't
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: have to fight back. Now, if I get cornered, I'm
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: gonna fight you. I ain't even gonna lie to you.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: And I'm still working on some things that trigger me.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: You know, you know, you know, and and so I'm
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: I'm slowly getting better at that. But I've learned that
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: my weapon of choice is prayer now. So when it
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: happens ugly for me, I pray about it. When it
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: gets tight and dismal for me, I pray about it.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: And the thing about prayer, man, is prayer changes things. Yes,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: it does. Now read about it and try it.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: That's the deal. Okay, come on, Prayer is a wonderful weapon.
