- 0:07Speaker 1: y'all listening to the voice? Come on dig me now
- 0:10Speaker 1: one it on? Is Steve Harvey got a radio show? Yeah?
- 0:13Speaker 1: Man boy, God has been good to me. Man, I
- 0:19Speaker 1: can't really count at all. You can't either, you know,
- 0:22Speaker 1: it's all in perspective. You really can't count all that
- 0:25Speaker 1: God has done for you if you look at every
- 0:28Speaker 1: little thing. It's unbelievable the things He's done for us.
- 0:33Speaker 1: How many times you know, we got through something without
- 0:35Speaker 1: even talking to him about it. He just he just
- 0:38Speaker 1: blessed us with it. How many you know? It's just
- 0:41Speaker 1: it's so much that the fact that you wake up
- 0:44Speaker 1: in the morning, the fact that you still have a
- 0:46Speaker 1: place to stay, the fact that you know may be
- 0:48Speaker 1: struggling out here, but guess what, you still going to work.
- 0:51Speaker 1: You know, you live in check to check, but you're
- 0:54Speaker 1: making it all. You got all the plates spinning, you know,
- 0:57Speaker 1: it's hard. You got a lot of plate spinning, but
- 0:58Speaker 1: you keep them up there. Someone every now and near
- 1:00Speaker 1: one break, but he put two more back up there
- 1:03Speaker 1: to look a little bit better. And you got to
- 1:04Speaker 1: get to spending them so it all works. And then
- 1:07Speaker 1: you got a lot of people who just can't seem
- 1:11Speaker 1: to mentally put it together as to you know, why
- 1:16Speaker 1: their life isn't in a position that they wanted to be.
- 1:19Speaker 1: We talk about this oftentimes, but I don't want to
- 1:22Speaker 1: try another angle with you to day. You know, maybe
- 1:26Speaker 1: it's you. Have you ever thought about that. Maybe it's you.
- 1:33Speaker 1: Maybe it's no external force that's at fault, like you
- 1:36Speaker 1: keep making the excuse to be. You know, so many
- 1:40Speaker 1: people out here, Well, if this hadn't ha done this,
- 1:42Speaker 1: if he hadn't have done that, if she hadn't have
- 1:44Speaker 1: done that, I would have been further along. I wasted
- 1:48Speaker 1: all my time, my years with this man and he
- 1:51Speaker 1: did this, and I could have been here and I
- 1:53Speaker 1: could have been there. And this woman she did this
- 1:56Speaker 1: to me. And if she hadn't have done that, I
- 1:58Speaker 1: could have been here and I could have been there.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Maybe it's you. Maybe it's not really that external force
- 2:06Speaker 1: that you keep making it out to be. See, I've
- 2:10Speaker 1: done this to myself before. Once again, I'm talking to
- 2:15Speaker 1: you about something I know about. I've done this to
- 2:18Speaker 1: myself before. I've had the reason I wasn't where I
- 2:23Speaker 1: wanted to be. I had it figured out as some
- 2:26Speaker 1: external force. I had worked it out in my mind.
- 2:31Speaker 1: Clearly it wasn't me because of so and so or
- 2:35Speaker 1: if this hadn't happen, and if they hadn't have done this,
- 2:38Speaker 1: I would have been further along up the road, That's
- 2:41Speaker 1: what I was saying. But hold on, man, boy. I
- 2:44Speaker 1: learned a valuable lesson. Man. See, if you don't ever
- 2:50Speaker 1: let it go, it's gonna be hard for you to go.
- 2:57Speaker 1: If you don't ever let it go, it's gonna be
- 3:01Speaker 1: hard for you to go. I was listening to Bishop
- 3:04Speaker 1: td Jake's one day, and I heard him say, you
- 3:09Speaker 1: can't drive your car if you gonna keep looking in
- 3:14Speaker 1: the rear view mirror. You go outside and try that.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Try to drive your car, but keep your eye in
- 3:20Speaker 1: the rear view mirror. All you looking at is where
- 3:24Speaker 1: you're being. All you're looking at in that rear view
- 3:27Speaker 1: mirror is where you passed or should have passed, something
- 3:30Speaker 1: you should have moved on from. All you're doing is
- 3:33Speaker 1: looking in that real view mirror at what happened back now.
- 3:38Speaker 1: If you don't stop looking in the real view mirror,
- 3:41Speaker 1: you're gonna crash your car over and over and over again.
- 3:47Speaker 1: All you got to slow it down so bad in
- 3:51Speaker 1: order for you to keep looking in that rear view mirror.
- 3:55Speaker 1: If you don't learn to let it go, it's gonna
- 4:00Speaker 1: be hard for you to go forward because you keep
- 4:05Speaker 1: reviewing the past. The past is the past, and I
- 4:09Speaker 1: know it's hard. Man. I watched a show and this
- 4:12Speaker 1: lady said, well, I just can't ever forgive them for that,
- 4:16Speaker 1: or guess what. Guess what God may have already forgiven
- 4:21Speaker 1: that person. That person may be extremely remorseful, could have
- 4:25Speaker 1: gone to God and gotten in forgiveness for it years ago.
- 4:30Speaker 1: But you you sit here and you keep hanging on
- 4:34Speaker 1: to the back. I can't ever forgive that. Then I
- 4:38Speaker 1: heard Bishop Jakes come on the show one time and
- 4:40Speaker 1: say something that really really struck home. You keep drinking
- 4:45Speaker 1: the poison waiting on your enemy to die. He said that.
- 4:52Speaker 1: I just shook my head and went, Wow, you drinking
- 4:56Speaker 1: the poison waiting on your enemy to die. Revenge is
- 5:01Speaker 1: poison to you. You know, if hatred is poisoned to you.
- 5:09Speaker 1: Unforgivingness when you won't forgive a person, that person could
- 5:14Speaker 1: be going on with they life made the right with God.
- 5:18Speaker 1: Don't know how you feeling. They skipping through life. Now
- 5:21Speaker 1: you make adjustments every time you see them, and it
- 5:23Speaker 1: takes energy. Man, it takes so much energy to hate.
- 5:27Speaker 1: It takes so much energy not to forgive to Now
- 5:31Speaker 1: they come in the room. You got to avoid them.
- 5:33Speaker 1: Stay over here, Oh here they come. Now you got
- 5:36Speaker 1: to make a situation over here. They come into the house.
- 5:39Speaker 1: It's family reunion. Oh oh, here they come. Or where
- 5:41Speaker 1: they gonna be in the basement. I'm going to be
- 5:43Speaker 1: on the third floor. I want to go out here
- 5:45Speaker 1: and get some barbecue. She out there at the barbecue, staying,
- 5:47Speaker 1: Oh lord, I don't want a barbecue. I just eat
- 5:49Speaker 1: to take a set of people. Man take themselves all
- 5:52Speaker 1: out of position, trying to make adjustments, when if you
- 5:56Speaker 1: it would simplify your life, if you would let just
- 6:01Speaker 1: let it go. Maybe you ain't where you need to
- 6:03Speaker 1: be because of them external forces altogether. Maybe you're not
- 6:08Speaker 1: where you need to because of you, because you won't
- 6:12Speaker 1: let it go, you won't move forward. Look at this, ladies,
- 6:16Speaker 1: Let's say you've been in a situation with a man
- 6:19Speaker 1: for years. It didn't work out. For whatever the reason,
- 6:22Speaker 1: it just didn't work out. I got what you say
- 6:26Speaker 1: he did. I got what he did. I got he
- 6:29Speaker 1: all of that, YadA YadA YadA. When you get through,
- 6:33Speaker 1: did not God get you through it? Did not he
- 6:37Speaker 1: allow you to survive it? I got you, got some
- 6:42Speaker 1: cuts on you, I got you been a little bit bruised.
- 6:46Speaker 1: But did he not get you through it? So now
- 6:50Speaker 1: that he's freed you from it, now he done went on.
- 6:52Speaker 1: He got a whole nother family over there somewhere. Now
- 6:55Speaker 1: he trying to make it right because maybe he learned
- 6:58Speaker 1: the mistake he made and now he trying to be better. Man,
- 7:00Speaker 1: He's just trying to get it right now. But you
- 7:03Speaker 1: sitting there holding on to it. You drinking the poison,
- 7:07Speaker 1: waiting on your enemy to die. So now, instead of
- 7:09Speaker 1: you enjoying the blessing of finally being free from a
- 7:12Speaker 1: situation that was not healthy for you, you create an even
- 7:15Speaker 1: more unhealthy situation in your mind by hating, by having
- 7:20Speaker 1: revengeful thoughts, by hoping he fall on his face. Maybe
- 7:25Speaker 1: you even doing something to the other situation to make
- 7:27Speaker 1: sure they struggle. Oh man, you drinking the poison, waiting
- 7:32Speaker 1: on your enemy to die. Maybe you ain't where you
- 7:35Speaker 1: ought to be in life, not because of your external forces,
- 7:38Speaker 1: but maybe it's you. If you don't let it go,
- 7:43Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard for you to go. You can't
- 7:46Speaker 1: keep driving your car looking in the rear view mirror.
- 7:50Speaker 1: Come on, man, Forgiveness is not for the other person.
- 7:56Speaker 1: Forgiveness is for you. Steve Harvey Morning Show
