  Speaker 1: Come on. Do your thing, Big Daddy. Uh-huh. I sure will.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Good morning, everybody. Y'all listening to The Voice. Come on,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: dig me now. One and only Steve Harvey. Got a
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: radio show. Got a good one for you today. Tommy
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: texted me and hit me with a thought this morning
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: that caused me to thinking a little bit deeper about it.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: And the text that Tommy sent me this morning said
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: that a tree yields fruit seasonally. But even when it's
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: not yielding, it's still a fruit tree. Don't get upset
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: at not producing. Your season is coming if you stay planted. Okay,
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: one more time. A fruit tree yields seasonally. But even
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: when it's not yielding, it's still a fruit tree. Don't
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: get upset at not producing because your season is coming
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: if you stay planted. Okay, now that meant something to
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: me this morning. And it caused me to start to
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: thinking it through a little bit deeper in terms of
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: what has happened in my life. Because here's the deal.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: The thing that I just learned recently was about seasons
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: in your life. Seasons. I was familiar with it all
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: my life. My mother taught it to me. I've experienced it,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: but I didn't really get it until of late. The
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: thing about the seasons in your life is when we
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: start thinking about when you hear people in church or
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: you hear people say, it's your season is coming. Boy,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: you in your season. You know what was messing me
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: up a little bit and it might be messing you up.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: I thought of seasons just like I did the seasons, winter, spring,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: summer and fall. But I had it on the timeline
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: just like seasons quarterly a year. So I looked at, boy,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: it's your season. Your season is coming. I looked at
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: it as a short span of time. And then I
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: was going to go back to the barrenness of winter.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: And then something might happen a little later on in
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: the spring and something popped through the ground and flowers
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: show up. And then they might survive the summer and
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: it's good and it's going good all summer long. And
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: I'm got it. I'm harvesting crops. Then the fall come
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: and start fading. Then winter, I go back to summer.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Suffering the barrenness of winter like a crop. But here's
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: what I learned. You cannot look at your season in
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: life and the seasons that we go through with the
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: same eye for seasons as you do with crops, because
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: God's timeline is totally different. See, a season to God
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: could be in a really extended period of time. It
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: could be the duration of your life. That's what a
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: season is in God's timeline. See, God is expansive, man.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: He's way bigger than the regular thing. So what may
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: be a season to a farmer? A season for God
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: could be 300 years, 50 years, 60 years, 80 years.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: You in there. So I had to learn that because
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I was afraid that seasonally meant that this blessing would
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: be for a short period of time. Then I go back.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Then I come another burst and then I go back.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: I'll fire a few more nice shots and I can
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: have a nice summer. And then I start withering away
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: and here come winter again. First things first. That's not
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: how it worked for me. And that's how I had
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: to learn. So now let's talk about it with that
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: in mind. See what the text Tommy sent me meant
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: a lot to me because see, everybody is a fruit tree.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: We are all a fruit tree. But here's the key, though.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: We are all different kinds of fruit trees. Oh, see,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: that's the difference. And that's the other thing was tripping
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: me out. See, I was looking at the other trees
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: trying to figure out why I wasn't given and bearing
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: the same fruit that they were bearing. Why wasn't I
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: a billionaire? Why wasn't I a yacht owner? Why didn't
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I come up with the next great idea? Why wasn't
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I the next big producer? Why wasn't I the next
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: big major star? Why wasn't I the one that came
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: up with some earth shattering idea and invention that would
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: change the scope of the world and all this money
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: would flow me? Why was that? Because that ain't my fruit.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: That's not my tree. See, everybody can't be Steve Jobs.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Everybody's not going to be the guy that comes up
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: with the next invention that changes the world. You ain't
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: the right brothers. You may not be the one to
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: think of flight. But what is your fruit, though? See,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: your fruit is plenty. See, and what what the text
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: was saying is your fruit, you you you bear fruit seasonally.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: That means it's coming. Sometimes you still sprouting. Well, when
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: you sprouting, you can't have fruit on you yet, but
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: you're tripping for you just sprouted. You just came up
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: through the dirt. You've been hustling and grinding. You just
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: popped up through the dirt. Now you're a young tree.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: You're a bush. Even if you had fruit on it,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: your bark and your limbs ain't strong enough to hold
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: the fruit. The size of the fruit would break your
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: limbs if you get it too early. Oh, come on, man.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Don't you understand this now? This is what this text
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: meant to me. And so while I wanted fruit, I
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: wasn't ready to hold the fruit. So you got to
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: strengthen yourself. You got to get focused. You got to
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: be who you're supposed to be. You got to try hard. God,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: the fruit season is coming for you because everybody is
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: a fruit tree and everybody going to bear fruit. But
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: what you cannot do is think that, look, if you're
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: a lemon tree and your fruit that you bear is lemon,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: this is analogy. Now I'm talking about whatever your gift is.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: The fruit you bear is a lemon tree. But you
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: look over there and you're looking at the apple orchard
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: and you're going, man, but them apples is big and red.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: More people eat apples than eat lemons. You sell more
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: apples than you do lemons. Oh, that's true. So now
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: guess what you do? Now you uproot yourself. You take
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: yourself up out of who you are and what you
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: were born to do. You remove yourself from your gift.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: You take yourself all out of who you really are.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Going over there, trying to be an apple tree when
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: God made you the lemon tree. Now, guess what? Now
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: you're all about the soil. You ain't rooted no more.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Can't no nutrients come up through your roots to even
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: feed the lemons that he bore you to have. Now
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: you over there trying to be an apple. Well, ain't
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: no room in the apple orchard for the lemon tree.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Now you wonder why you can't get your roots down
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: in there, why they ain't accepting you. Now you're barren. Man,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: old woe is me. Lord, you don't never give me
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: no fruit. It's because you keep moving. You keep taking
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: yourself out of who you are. You keep removing yourself
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: from the soil that you was planted in. You keep
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: taking yourself out your orchard. Stop trying to be an
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: apple if you was born to be a lemon. What's
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: wrong with lemons? I like lemonade. A lot of people
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: I know like lemonade. Lemonade, if you stay focused with it,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: you might be the only one with the good lemons. Now,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: everybody that need lemons got to come to you. Oh, man,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: but if you keep uprooting yourself, moving, you'll never bear
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: the fruit that you was born to bear. Everybody is
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: a fruit tree, but you got to stay planted, man.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: You got to stay nourished. You got to talk to
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: your creator who made you and find out what fruit
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: you're supposed to bear. And then in your season, it's coming. Man,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: your season is coming, but you got to stay planted.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: And you got to realize through contacting your creator what
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: type of fruit tree you are. And quit looking at
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: the other orchards trying to get over there and they
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: got more fruit than you. That's not who you are.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Stop trying to be something that you are not. You're
• 7:59
