- 0:12Speaker 1: what's on your mind? You know? Here's my closing remarks.
- 0:17Speaker 1: I talk about a lot of things. I talk about discipline,
- 0:21Speaker 1: I talk about faith, I talk about consistency. I talk
- 0:28Speaker 1: about never giving up. I talk about a wide range
- 0:33Speaker 1: of things because it's all in line with trying to
- 0:36Speaker 1: encourage people. Also, it lines up with me sharing what
- 0:40Speaker 1: I've learned over the years. I'm older than most people
- 0:44Speaker 1: who listen to this show. Now, a lot of people
- 0:48Speaker 1: are way older than me to listen to the show,
- 0:50Speaker 1: a lot of them. But I'm in that upper tier
- 0:55Speaker 1: and I've learned a lot of things in my life,
- 0:59Speaker 1: and today I want to give you the absolute most
- 1:02Speaker 1: significant thing. Listen to me. You all in your own way,
- 1:10Speaker 1: starting now, if you have not done so, or it
- 1:15Speaker 1: needs to be revitalized, or you need to get it started,
- 1:20Speaker 1: or you need to just revamp it, you have got
- 1:24Speaker 1: to start paying attention to your relationship with God. I
- 1:31Speaker 1: don't care what nobody tell you. The central ingredient to
- 1:37Speaker 1: happiness or success is your relationship with God, because it
- 1:45Speaker 1: can be a very present help at all times, and
- 1:51Speaker 1: you really need it in times of trouble, because sometimes, y'all,
- 1:57Speaker 1: you just don't have the answer. I can't tell you
- 2:00Speaker 1: how many times when I was homeless, I was sitting there, man,
- 2:04Speaker 1: and I just put both hands on the steering wheel
- 2:07Speaker 1: and will put my head on that stairing wheel and
- 2:09Speaker 1: just say, Lord, I just don't know. I don't know
- 2:13Speaker 1: what to do. And I'm telling you, I was trying
- 2:16Speaker 1: to think of everything. But when I finally realized that
- 2:24Speaker 1: me doing it myself wasn't working. When I finally realized
- 2:29Speaker 1: that all the teachings of my mother, who had been
- 2:31Speaker 1: a Sunday school teacher for forty years, when I realized
- 2:35Speaker 1: everything she was trying to tell me about faith and prayer,
- 2:39Speaker 1: I had stopped doing it and I was just sitting
- 2:43Speaker 1: there trying to figure it out. When I got back
- 2:47Speaker 1: to praying and talking to God, it didn't instantly change it,
- 2:53Speaker 1: but guess what it did. It instantly changed my mindset.
- 2:59Speaker 1: I suddenly realized I wasn't by myself. It suddenly dawned
- 3:04Speaker 1: on me that now He is really listening to me,
- 3:09Speaker 1: and you know what it did. I just felt better.
- 3:13Speaker 1: I just felt better because He gave me a calmness
- 3:15Speaker 1: and a peace. And then He started strengthening me to
- 3:19Speaker 1: give me the strength to endure this test I was under.
- 3:23Speaker 1: And then he started giving me some resolution in my mind.
- 3:26Speaker 1: He started helping me to understand why it was happening,
- 3:31Speaker 1: and I was able to cope with it better. And
- 3:34Speaker 1: then one day I looked up and it was over.
- 3:39Speaker 1: My dream had gotten true. I had got a call
- 3:42Speaker 1: to be on showtime at Depolo, and little did I
- 3:45Speaker 1: know that that one call right there would skyrocket everything. Now.
- 3:49Speaker 1: It didn't mean that hardships was over, No, it didn't.
- 3:53Speaker 1: It didn't mean that I was problem free. It didn't
- 3:56Speaker 1: mean that I was. I had hit it now and
- 3:58Speaker 1: it wasn't no nothing else to deal with. Now. It
- 4:01Speaker 1: came with a whole new set of challenges. All right here,
- 4:05Speaker 1: we gave you this TV show. Now, guess what I
- 4:07Speaker 1: looked up. I didn't have nothing to wear on TV
- 4:11Speaker 1: because I was that backed up with poverty. They gave
- 4:16Speaker 1: me showtime of Apollo, and I didn't have the clothes
- 4:18Speaker 1: to go on the Apollo. But then you know what
- 4:22Speaker 1: God did. He started providing. He gave me a friend
- 4:28Speaker 1: name Barbara Bates in Chicago. He gave me a friend
- 4:33Speaker 1: name Jabib that owned the store called Silhouettes in Dallas, Texas.
- 4:41Speaker 1: He just started giving me friends man that would let
- 4:44Speaker 1: me buy clothes on discount and up front, let me
- 4:49Speaker 1: open up an account until I started making money on
- 4:52Speaker 1: TV and I could pay these people back. All because
- 4:56Speaker 1: I had formed a relationship with God, and he took
- 4:59Speaker 1: the what I didn't know and provided me with solutions.
- 5:03Speaker 1: I didn't even know what I was gonna wear on
- 5:05Speaker 1: TV man, and he started touching people's hearts and making
- 5:10Speaker 1: a way. When I finally when I first got on
- 5:12Speaker 1: Showtime did Pollo, I wasn't wearing suits. I was wearing
- 5:16Speaker 1: a little vest and shirts and stuff. I said, Man,
- 5:19Speaker 1: I got to give me some suits. Barbara Bates started
- 5:22Speaker 1: designing all my suits for Showtime at the Apollo. That
- 5:28Speaker 1: girl man changed my life. Man. Shout out to Barbara
- 5:32Speaker 1: Bates in Chicago, beautiful sister man. Thank you to Harbid Man.
- 5:40Speaker 1: Thank you to a partner mine man. I'm My first
- 5:43Speaker 1: opening gig ever was Frankie Beverly Maids at the front
- 5:46Speaker 1: Row Theater. I ain't had nothing to work. He gave
- 5:49Speaker 1: me two hundred dollars. I went to man talking about
- 5:51Speaker 1: my outfit to open for Frankie, Beverly and Maids at
- 5:54Speaker 1: the front Row theater. Wow, I looked back, man, when
- 5:59Speaker 1: I was thinking of all all the times I didn't
- 6:01Speaker 1: have a way, and I look at how many times
- 6:03Speaker 1: God provided away. But that's because I had opened up
- 6:06Speaker 1: my heart to have a relationship with him. And I'm
- 6:09Speaker 1: inviting you all to do the same thing, because God
- 6:12Speaker 1: will welcome you with open arms. God knows he ain't
- 6:16Speaker 1: heard from you in a while, and he okay with that.
- 6:19Speaker 1: God is a forgiving god. Man, don't you let the
- 6:22Speaker 1: devil fool you and make you think since you ain't
- 6:23Speaker 1: talked to me in a while, he ain't gonna listen
- 6:25Speaker 1: to you. That's not true. God is available for you
- 6:28Speaker 1: right now. Try y'all get your relationship together with God.
