- 0:00Speaker 1: Come on you, I sure will. Good morning everybody, y'all
- 0:07Speaker 1: listening to the voice, Come on dig me now, one
- 0:10Speaker 1: and only Steve Harvey Man got a radio show. Wow man,
- 0:14Speaker 1: how good has God been to me? You know? Today?
- 0:17Speaker 1: Let me get right to it because I'm kind of
- 0:20Speaker 1: feeling this today, and I'm pretty sure there's quite a
- 0:24Speaker 1: few of you who go through the same things today.
- 0:28Speaker 1: Today was just a little tough mourning for me because
- 0:31Speaker 1: I didn't want to leave home yesterday. You know, I
- 0:34Speaker 1: wanted to stay home a little. I had just gotten home,
- 0:37Speaker 1: you know, I gotta go again, and sometimes, you know,
- 0:40Speaker 1: just the weight of all that you have to do
- 0:43Speaker 1: just gets on you sometimes and sometimes you don't feel
- 0:46Speaker 1: like doing it today. Huh. You know, I'm just talking
- 0:52Speaker 1: to those who feel this way every now and then,
- 0:54Speaker 1: and I'm assuming that would be everybody, because I don't
- 0:57Speaker 1: know nobody who can just plow through this thing out
- 1:00Speaker 1: having those days. Well, what do you do when it
- 1:05Speaker 1: gets hard to stay up? What do you do when
- 1:08Speaker 1: it gets hard to be positive? What do you do
- 1:12Speaker 1: when it seems like things aren't happening for you fast
- 1:16Speaker 1: enough or in the timeframe that you thought it was going.
- 1:19Speaker 1: What do you do. And the reason that I guess
- 1:22Speaker 1: I chose to speak about this this morning is because
- 1:25Speaker 1: I'm having one of those days. Because I had one
- 1:28Speaker 1: of those days yesterday. It's just a tough day. I
- 1:31Speaker 1: really can't explain it. It's nothing really in particular bad happened.
- 1:36Speaker 1: It's just I think the weight of all that's going
- 1:43Speaker 1: on started to feel heavy to me. And so what
- 1:49Speaker 1: do you do when when you have days like that,
- 1:52Speaker 1: when it's hard to be positive, when it's hard to
- 1:53Speaker 1: stay up. Okay, here's what I had to start doing
- 1:57Speaker 1: this morning. Now I haven't completed it. Can I just
- 2:01Speaker 1: be real with you. I haven't completed it, but I
- 2:04Speaker 1: am processing it out because I know what to do.
- 2:08Speaker 1: You know, been there, done that, I done, had that
- 2:10Speaker 1: pain before. I know what to do. You know, if
- 2:12Speaker 1: I sprang my finger, I know what to do. Now.
- 2:14Speaker 1: You know the first spraying I had, Oh Lord, I
- 2:17Speaker 1: thought it was broke. I thought I'd go be handicapped.
- 2:19Speaker 1: But now if I spray my finger, I know what
- 2:21Speaker 1: to do. So since I've been in this position, in
- 2:24Speaker 1: this hole so many times before, and God has always
- 2:27Speaker 1: gotten me through it, I decided I've got to start
- 2:30Speaker 1: the process today. Want to here are some things. Now,
- 2:35Speaker 1: I'm going to get to the big one last. And
- 2:38Speaker 1: one of the things I do is I remember the plan,
- 2:43Speaker 1: sit down, and I consciously think about the goals I've set.
- 2:48Speaker 1: I go over them. See, I've gotten mine down on
- 2:50Speaker 1: the iPad so I can pull them out anywhere I
- 2:53Speaker 1: am and pull them up. And I've got two lists
- 2:56Speaker 1: that I've made. I've got a list of things that
- 2:58Speaker 1: I know I can accompl if I just keep working
- 3:01Speaker 1: hard and if it's some couple of things just fall
- 3:05Speaker 1: into place that I can see, then I got a
- 3:08Speaker 1: list of things that I'm planning on accomplishing. And then
- 3:11Speaker 1: I have a second list. And the heading of this
- 3:14Speaker 1: list is called only God can help Me Now. And
- 3:18Speaker 1: on this list it's things that I'm aspiring for or
- 3:22Speaker 1: things that I'm hoping to that in order for them
- 3:25Speaker 1: to happen, I absolutely have to have God's help. That's
- 3:31Speaker 1: my favorite list. It's the list that I have of
- 3:36Speaker 1: the things that I don't see no way it can happen.
- 3:40Speaker 1: I'm just operating on faith and the hope that God
- 3:44Speaker 1: hear me. And so sometimes, man, when you got to
- 3:48Speaker 1: when I have this list of what only God can
- 3:52Speaker 1: help me now That list is stuff that I cannot see.
- 3:56Speaker 1: I'm just operating on faith that God is so much
- 3:59Speaker 1: bigger me, that he's so much more capable than I am,
- 4:04Speaker 1: that I can actually acquire some things in my life,
- 4:07Speaker 1: as He's proven to me time and time again up
- 4:09Speaker 1: to this point, that He's willing to do for me.
- 4:12Speaker 1: If I'm willing to just give him some of my life.
- 4:15Speaker 1: That's only why I can explain my existence today. You know,
- 4:19Speaker 1: I began the conversation with my wife, how do I
- 4:22Speaker 1: write a book that becomes so wildly successful? That would
- 4:27Speaker 1: be God? That's only God, because if you can plan
- 4:30Speaker 1: to sit down and write a wildly successful book, I'd
- 4:34Speaker 1: have been then sat down and did it, and so
- 4:36Speaker 1: would you, So that would be God. How it got
- 4:40Speaker 1: purchased to become a movie when that was not my
- 4:43Speaker 1: intent when I wrote the book at all, Again, that
- 4:47Speaker 1: would be God right there. It has to be because
- 4:51Speaker 1: if I can explain it and it is by no
- 4:53Speaker 1: doing of my own, then who did it? So when
- 4:56Speaker 1: I get down in days like this, I remember the
- 5:00Speaker 1: I remember the plan, I remember the journey. I think
- 5:04Speaker 1: about of all the things God has brought me through,
- 5:06Speaker 1: how did I even get to this point. Yeah, I
- 5:08Speaker 1: might be having a little bumba of a day. Yeah
- 5:10Speaker 1: I was a little down yesterday. Yeah my bio rhythms
- 5:13Speaker 1: is off, whatever they want to call it. Yeah, I'm
- 5:16Speaker 1: just having one of those days. I feel a little
- 5:18Speaker 1: bit heavy. I need a vacation real bad. I need
- 5:21Speaker 1: some time off to just go and regenerate. But right now, man,
- 5:25Speaker 1: I ain't got that. So guess what I do. I
- 5:27Speaker 1: gotta start remembering the plan. I gotta start remembering the goals.
- 5:31Speaker 1: I gotta start thinking about all the things that God
- 5:34Speaker 1: has done for me and how He's brought me this far,
- 5:37Speaker 1: and the blessings that I have instead of what I
- 5:39Speaker 1: don't have. And that's what I'm in the process of
- 5:41Speaker 1: doing this morning. And on the commercial breaks, I'm gonna
- 5:44Speaker 1: pull out my iPad and I'm gonna go over my
- 5:46Speaker 1: two lists, and I'm gonna read my little list of
- 5:49Speaker 1: what I think I can accomplish, and I'm gonna really
- 5:51Speaker 1: read that only God can help me now list, because
- 5:54Speaker 1: that's the list that's big. That's the part where I've
- 5:56Speaker 1: been telling y'all, I say, quit telling God how big
- 6:00Speaker 1: your problems are, and start telling your problems. How big
- 6:03Speaker 1: your God is. See, and that's what I got to
- 6:06Speaker 1: sit down and do this morning. And then sometimes, man,
- 6:09Speaker 1: you got to stay still. That's the other part. You
- 6:13Speaker 1: got to stay still. You gotta quit moving for a second,
- 6:18Speaker 1: because sometimes it feels like you're running on a treadmill
- 6:21Speaker 1: and you really ain't you going somewhere, but it feel
- 6:24Speaker 1: like you're running on a treadmill. Well, when you get
- 6:27Speaker 1: that feeling, sometimes you got to stay still. And then
- 6:30Speaker 1: when you stay still, sometimes you gotta fight to stay positive.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Sometimes you gotta fight not to let the devil win.
- 6:37Speaker 1: You're in a fight, mam. I told you this. Now,
- 6:39Speaker 1: you're in a fight now. So he trying to get
- 6:41Speaker 1: you to get on that positive train so he can
- 6:43Speaker 1: get you off the faith train. So God's delivery package
- 6:46Speaker 1: that's coming to you built on your faith, that you
- 6:49Speaker 1: can shake your faith and get you to thinking negative
- 6:52Speaker 1: and then he wins. See. So when you start feeling negative,
- 6:55Speaker 1: just know that that's the other force trying to throw
- 6:57Speaker 1: you off track. And when you get through it all
- 6:59Speaker 1: that here is the key, the big one. You want
- 7:01Speaker 1: me to tell it to you. You got to pray, man,
- 7:04Speaker 1: you got to pray. You got to take it to God.
- 7:07Speaker 1: You got to say, God, look I'm having one of
- 7:08Speaker 1: these days. I need your help. I got business to
- 7:11Speaker 1: take care of. You got blessings in front of me.
- 7:13Speaker 1: You got stuff you don ship to me. You got
- 7:16Speaker 1: blessings and packages that's on the way. I need to
- 7:18Speaker 1: be sitting on Faith Street so I can receive the
- 7:20Speaker 1: delivery when it gets there. What I don't want to
- 7:23Speaker 1: do is be it on be undoubted way or lack
- 7:27Speaker 1: of understanding parkway, or Pity Parkway or some street like that,
- 7:33Speaker 1: and the package keep going by. I need to be
- 7:36Speaker 1: standing and sitting on Faith Street so when you drop
- 7:39Speaker 1: that package down to me, I can go on and
- 7:41Speaker 1: get it. You feel me. You got to pray. You
- 7:44Speaker 1: got to stay still. You gotta fight to stay positive.
- 7:47Speaker 1: You gotta remember the plan. You got to go over
- 7:49Speaker 1: the goals. Come on, man, God and brought you too far,
- 7:52Speaker 1: Come on, pick yourself up today. I'm talking to Steve
