- 0:00Speaker 1: Come on, uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody.
- 0:07Speaker 2: You're listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now
- 0:11Speaker 2: one and on that Steve Harvey got a radio show.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Well all right, I've learned something and it's sharing time.
- 0:24Speaker 2: And I am ever appreciated. I do appreciate God for
- 0:29Speaker 2: all that he allows me to learn in my life. Well,
- 0:34Speaker 2: one of the best lessons I've learned is that hardship
- 0:41Speaker 2: teaches you some great lessons. Challenges brings about some of
- 0:47Speaker 2: my best results. I think what I'm trying to say
- 0:51Speaker 2: is in every challenge, in hardship, every setback, I've learned something.
- 0:59Speaker 1: So that's so valuable.
- 1:02Speaker 2: So here's here's what I've You know, I've known this,
- 1:06Speaker 2: but I've just learned it at a different angle. Appreciation
- 1:11Speaker 2: and gratitude is the key to having more.
- 1:16Speaker 1: Now.
- 1:18Speaker 2: I don't know how that sound to you, but I
- 1:23Speaker 2: can't tell you how true it is. God being fair
- 1:27Speaker 2: and just as he really is.
- 1:29Speaker 1: He really is. He's a fair and a just God.
- 1:32Speaker 2: What's most beneficial to us is he happens to be
- 1:37Speaker 2: full of mercy and grace. And I'm telling you something, man,
- 1:44Speaker 2: I've probably benefited from his grace and mercy more than
- 1:52Speaker 2: anything else. I mean, really, man, if it wasn't for
- 1:55Speaker 2: him just forgiving me, and then for him just touching
- 2:02Speaker 2: my life the way he has, I mean, I'm not
- 2:06Speaker 2: here in this position today.
- 2:07Speaker 1: I'm just not.
- 2:09Speaker 2: But a funny thing has happened along the way, even
- 2:13Speaker 2: to you. If you look at it, is it your
- 2:16Speaker 2: genuine appreciation and gratitude has been the key to you
- 2:22Speaker 2: having more for your continued blessings and for making room
- 2:29Speaker 2: for Heaven to open up and pour out blessings that
- 2:31Speaker 2: you don't have room enough to receive. If you look
- 2:34Speaker 2: at it, see God being affair and just God, which
- 2:37Speaker 2: he is, Why would.
- 2:39Speaker 1: He put more on you than you can bear?
- 2:45Speaker 2: If you've noticed everything that's happened in your life, if
- 2:49Speaker 2: you're still here, you've made it. You know, forget how
- 2:53Speaker 2: rough it was, got that, but you made it. Forget
- 2:58Speaker 2: what it sent you through, and it hide you feel.
- 3:02Speaker 1: You made it. Now.
- 3:05Speaker 2: What makes people give up, and you hear about people
- 3:07Speaker 2: committing suicide is they leave the God out of their
- 3:10Speaker 2: life and they start allowing that other voice to control.
- 3:16Speaker 2: And if it's really true that God never puts more
- 3:18Speaker 2: on you than you can bear, as long as you
- 3:20Speaker 2: stay connected to God, you can get through anything. But
- 3:25Speaker 2: you lose that connection, you lose that communication, you lose
- 3:31Speaker 2: that relationship with him. If you're not having a relationship
- 3:35Speaker 2: with God, then who you having a relationship with? Now
- 3:40Speaker 2: it ain't but two forces at work at all time.
- 3:44Speaker 2: It's good and evil. It's positive and negative is God,
- 3:51Speaker 2: it's Satan. Now, this is at work all the time.
- 3:57Speaker 2: So if you're not being positive about everything, you leave
- 4:00Speaker 2: room for negativity to step in. If you're not trying
- 4:05Speaker 2: to be righteous in your way, then you allow evil
- 4:08Speaker 2: to step in. If you don't work on your relationship
- 4:12Speaker 2: with God. Come on, now, look who you're letting step in.
- 4:18Speaker 2: So now I'm asking you to understand that God never
- 4:23Speaker 2: puts more on you than you can bear. Okay, now
- 4:26Speaker 2: that we got that clear, that's a fact. Okay, Now
- 4:29Speaker 2: with that fact in mind, let's go over this right here.
- 4:32Speaker 2: Why would God, being as just and merciful as he is,
- 4:37Speaker 2: put more on you than you can bear? Example, if
- 4:41Speaker 2: God has given you blessings and all you're doing is
- 4:45Speaker 2: complaining about him, you're never showing any appreciation of gratitude
- 4:50Speaker 2: about it, why would he give you some more stuff
- 4:52Speaker 2: to be ungrateful for why would he give you some
- 4:55Speaker 2: more stuff to complain about?
- 4:58Speaker 1: Why would he give you some more stuff that you
- 4:59Speaker 1: would not show any more appreciation for. I mean, this
- 5:03Speaker 1: thing is real simple, man, ain't it? If you think
- 5:05Speaker 1: about it?
- 5:06Speaker 2: So A lot of times, man, when I was going
- 5:08Speaker 2: through my positions of not having and wondering at all
- 5:12Speaker 2: like her, I ended up checking myself and going, man,
- 5:15Speaker 2: I'm not even showing any gratitude or appreciation for the
- 5:18Speaker 2: things he has done for me. Start showing some appreciation
- 5:21Speaker 2: and gratitude, because it's the key to having more. It's
- 5:25Speaker 2: the key to continued blessings. It's the key to the
- 5:28Speaker 2: wonders of heaven opening up and pouring out a blessing
- 5:31Speaker 2: that you won't have room enough to receive. It's the
- 5:35Speaker 2: appreciation and gratitude of what you already have, as minimal
- 5:41Speaker 2: as it.
- 5:41Speaker 1: May appear to be right now for you, it is
- 5:45Speaker 1: still what you have.
- 5:47Speaker 2: But if you've shown no gratitude for the minimal, why
- 5:54Speaker 2: would he give you the maximum? I mean, I'm just
- 5:58Speaker 2: really just trying to put it real, real simple, so
- 6:01Speaker 2: I can keep understanding this thing right here. So let
- 6:04Speaker 2: me give you an example in my life. I had
- 6:08Speaker 2: gotten so busy at one point that I had began
- 6:13Speaker 2: to complain about how busy I was. This is true
- 6:18Speaker 2: because I am busy, but it ain't the busy part
- 6:23Speaker 2: because I asked to be busy, you know, I asked
- 6:25Speaker 2: God to give me opportunities and to.
- 6:29Speaker 1: Make a way for me.
- 6:30Speaker 2: Well, in that, you got to do something, and you
- 6:32Speaker 2: got to get busy. But I began to complain about
- 6:37Speaker 2: the busyness and how busy I was, and I noticed
- 6:41Speaker 2: that a couple of things slowed up for me. So
- 6:44Speaker 2: I had got to the point where I wasn't showing
- 6:47Speaker 2: real gratitude for it. Well, I looked up and a
- 6:50Speaker 2: couple of things started slowing down. And then I had
- 6:53Speaker 2: to catch myself, and I went, wow, man, you have
- 6:56Speaker 2: got to start embracing the fact that you are busy,
- 7:01Speaker 2: embrace the fact that what all comes along with it.
- 7:04Speaker 2: Because to whom much is given, much is required. You
- 7:07Speaker 2: gotta start embracing the requirement part if you want to
- 7:11Speaker 2: continue with the giving part.
- 7:14Speaker 1: So I changed my attitude.
- 7:15Speaker 2: I caught myself, and I started thinking them and showing
- 7:18Speaker 2: real gratitude for how busy I was, instead of complaining
- 7:21Speaker 2: about how busy I was, and then guess what, It
- 7:24Speaker 2: opened up the windows of heaven and some more blessings
- 7:26Speaker 2: got poured out. It just works that way all the time,
- 7:30Speaker 2: for everybody, for me, for you, for everybody. So listen,
- 7:34Speaker 2: y'all again. Your appreciation and gratitude is the key to
- 7:38Speaker 2: having more. Your appreciation and gratitude is the key to
- 7:41Speaker 2: continued blessings, and your appreciation and gratitude is the only
- 7:46Speaker 2: way that you can get those windows of heaven to
- 7:49Speaker 2: open up and pull out these blessings that you won't
- 7:51Speaker 2: have room enough to receive. You got to act like
- 7:54Speaker 2: you're glad for what you've got in order to get more.
- 7:56Speaker 2: You feel me, let's go here at the Steve
- 8:00Speaker 1: Harvey Morning Show.
