- 0:00Speaker 1: Come on your Ah, I sure will.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Good morning everybody, y'all listening to the voice, Come on
- 0:09Speaker 2: digging now waning and only Steve Harvey Man got a
- 0:12Speaker 2: radio show?
- 0:13Speaker 1: Wow man, how good has God been to me? You know? Today?
- 0:17Speaker 2: Let me get right to it, because I'm kind of
- 0:20Speaker 2: feeling this today, and I'm pretty sure there's quite a
- 0:24Speaker 2: few of you who go through the same things today.
- 0:28Speaker 2: Today was just a little tough mourning for me because
- 0:31Speaker 2: I didn't want to leave home yesterday.
- 0:34Speaker 1: You know, I want to stay home a little.
- 0:35Speaker 2: I'd just gotten home, you know, I gotta go again,
- 0:39Speaker 2: and sometimes, you know, just the.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Weight of all that you have to do just gets.
- 0:43Speaker 2: On you sometimes and sometimes you don't feel like doing
- 0:47Speaker 2: it today.
- 0:49Speaker 1: Huh.
- 0:50Speaker 2: You know, I'm just talking to those who feel this
- 0:53Speaker 2: way every now and then, and I'm assuming that would
- 0:55Speaker 2: be everybody, because I don't know nobody who can just
- 0:58Speaker 2: plow through this thing without having those days. Well, what
- 1:02Speaker 2: do you do when it gets hard to stay up?
- 1:07Speaker 2: What do you do when it gets hard to be positive?
- 1:11Speaker 2: What do you do when it seems like things aren't
- 1:14Speaker 2: happening for you fast enough or in the timeframe that
- 1:18Speaker 2: you thought it was going what do you do? And
- 1:21Speaker 2: the reason that I guess I chose to speak about
- 1:24Speaker 2: this this morning is because I'm having one of those days.
- 1:27Speaker 2: Because I had one of those days yesterday. It's just
- 1:30Speaker 2: a tough day. I really can't explain it. It's nothing
- 1:33Speaker 2: really in particular bad happened. It's just I think the
- 1:39Speaker 2: weight of all that's going on started to feel heavy
- 1:46Speaker 2: to me. And so what do you do when you
- 1:51Speaker 2: have days like that? When it's hard to be positive,
- 1:53Speaker 2: when it's hard.
- 1:53Speaker 1: To stay up?
- 1:55Speaker 2: Okay, here's what I had to start doing this morning.
- 1:57Speaker 2: Now I haven't completed it. Can I just be real
- 2:01Speaker 2: with you. I haven't completed it, but I am processing
- 2:06Speaker 2: 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.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Now.
- 2:14Speaker 1: You know the first spraying I had, Oh Lord, I.
- 2:17Speaker 2: Thought it was broke. I thought I'd go be handicapped.
- 2:20Speaker 2: But now if I spray my finger, I know what
- 2:21Speaker 2: to do. So since I've been in this position, in
- 2:24Speaker 2: this hole so many times before, and God has always
- 2:27Speaker 2: gotten me through it, I decided I've got to start
- 2:30Speaker 2: the process today want to here are some things. Now
- 2:35Speaker 2: I'm going to get to the big one last. And
- 2:38Speaker 2: one of the things I do is I remember the plan,
- 2:43Speaker 2: sit down, and I consciously think about the goals I've set.
- 2:48Speaker 1: I go over them.
- 2:49Speaker 2: See, I've gotten mine down on the iPad so I
- 2:51Speaker 2: can pull them out anywhere I am and pull them up.
- 2:54Speaker 2: And I've got two lists that I've made. I've got
- 2:57Speaker 2: a list of things that I know I can accomp
- 3:00Speaker 2: if I just keep working hard and if it's some
- 3:03Speaker 2: couple of things just fall into place that I can see.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Then I got a list of things that I'm planning
- 3:09Speaker 2: on accomplishing. And then I have a second list. And
- 3:13Speaker 2: the heading of this list is called only God can
- 3:16Speaker 2: help Me Now. And on this list it's things that
- 3:20Speaker 2: I'm aspiring for or things that I'm hoping to that
- 3:24Speaker 2: in order for them to happen, I absolutely have to
- 3:29Speaker 2: have God's help. That's my favorite list. It's the list
- 3:35Speaker 2: that I have of the things that I don't see
- 3:38Speaker 2: no way it can happen. I'm just operating on faith
- 3:43Speaker 2: and the hope that God hear me. And so sometimes, man,
- 3:47Speaker 2: when you got to when I have this list of
- 3:51Speaker 2: what only God can help me. Now that list is
- 3:54Speaker 2: stuff that I cannot see. I'm just operating on faith
- 3:58Speaker 2: that God has so much bigger in me, that he's
- 4:01Speaker 2: so much more capable than I am, that I can
- 4:04Speaker 2: actually acquire some things in my life, as He's proven
- 4:08Speaker 2: to me time and time again up to this point,
- 4:10Speaker 2: that he's willing to do for me. If I'm willing
- 4:12Speaker 2: to just give him some of my life. That's only
- 4:16Speaker 2: why I can explain my existence today. You know, I
- 4:20Speaker 2: began the conversation with my wife, how do I write
- 4:23Speaker 2: a book that.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Becomes so wildly successful? That would be God?
- 4:28Speaker 2: That's only God, Because if you can plan to sit
- 4:31Speaker 2: down and write a wildly successful book, I'd have been done,
- 4:34Speaker 2: sat down and did it, and so would you, So
- 4:38Speaker 2: that would be God. How it got purchased to become
- 4:41Speaker 2: a movie when that was not my intent when I
- 4:44Speaker 2: wrote the book at all. Again, that would be God
- 4:48Speaker 2: right there. It has to be, because if I can't
- 4:52Speaker 2: explain it, and it is by no doing of my own,
- 4:55Speaker 2: did who did it? So when I get down in
- 4:58Speaker 2: days like this, I remember the goal, I remember the plan,
- 5:02Speaker 2: I remember the journey. I think about of all the
- 5:05Speaker 2: things God has brought me through. How did I even
- 5:07Speaker 2: get to this point? Yeah, I might be having a
- 5:09Speaker 2: little bumba of a day. Yeah I was a little
- 5:11Speaker 2: down yesterday. Yeah my bio rhythms is off, whatever they
- 5:15Speaker 2: want to call it. Yeah, I'm just having one of
- 5:17Speaker 2: those days. I feel a little bit heavy. I need
- 5:19Speaker 2: a vacation real bad. I need some time off to
- 5:22Speaker 2: just go and regenerate. But right now, man, I ain't
- 5:26Speaker 2: got that. So guess what I do. I gotta start
- 5:28Speaker 2: remembering the plan. I gotta start remembering the goals. I
- 5:31Speaker 2: gotta start thinking about all the things that God has
- 5:34Speaker 2: done for me and how He's brought me this far
- 5:37Speaker 2: and the blessings that I have instead of what I
- 5:39Speaker 2: don't have. And that's what I'm in the process of
- 5:41Speaker 2: doing this morning. And on the commercial breaks, I'm gonna
- 5:44Speaker 2: pull out my iPad and I'm gonna go over my
- 5:46Speaker 2: two lists, and I'm gonna reading my little list of
- 5:49Speaker 2: what I think I can accomplish, and I'm gonna really
- 5:51Speaker 2: read that only God can help me now list, because
- 5:54Speaker 2: that's the list that's big. That's the part where I've
- 5:56Speaker 2: been telling y'all. I say, quit telling God how big
- 6:00Speaker 2: your problems are. And start telling your problems how big
- 6:03Speaker 2: your God is. See, and that's what I got to
- 6:06Speaker 2: sit down and do this morning. And then sometimes, man,
- 6:09Speaker 2: you got to stay still. That's the other part. You
- 6:13Speaker 2: got to stay still. You gotta quit moving for a second,
- 6:18Speaker 2: because sometimes it feels like you're running on a treadmill
- 6:22Speaker 2: and you really ain't you going somewhere, but it feel
- 6:24Speaker 2: like you're running on a treadmill. Well, when you get
- 6:27Speaker 2: that feeling, sometimes you got to stay still. And then
- 6:31Speaker 2: when you stay still, sometimes you gotta fight to stay positive.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Sometimes you gotta fight not to let the devil win.
- 6:37Speaker 2: You're in a fight, mam. I told you this. Now
- 6:39Speaker 2: you're in a fight now. So he trying to get
- 6:41Speaker 2: you to get on that positive train so he can
- 6:43Speaker 2: get you off the faith train. So God's delivery package
- 6:47Speaker 2: that's coming to you built on your faith, that you
- 6:49Speaker 2: can shake your faith and get you to thinking negative
- 6:52Speaker 2: and then he wins.
- 6:53Speaker 1: See.
- 6:53Speaker 2: So when you start feeling negative, just know that that's
- 6:56Speaker 2: the other force trying to throw you off track. And
- 6:58Speaker 2: when you get through it all that here is the key,
- 7:00Speaker 2: the big one. You want me to tell it to you,
- 7:02Speaker 2: You got to pray, man, you got to pray. You
- 7:05Speaker 2: got to take it to God. You got to say, God,
- 7:08Speaker 2: look I'm having one of these days. I need your help.
- 7:11Speaker 2: I got business to take care of. You got blessings
- 7:13Speaker 2: in front of me. You got stuff you can ship
- 7:15Speaker 2: to me. You got blessings and packages that's on the way.
- 7:18Speaker 2: I need to be sitting on Faith Streets so I
- 7:20Speaker 2: can receive the delivery when it gets there. What I
- 7:22Speaker 2: don't want to do is be it on be undoubted
- 7:25Speaker 2: way or lack of understanding Parkway, or Pity Parkway or
- 7:31Speaker 2: some street like that, and the package keep going by.
- 7:35Speaker 2: I need to be standing and sitting on Faith Street
- 7:38Speaker 2: so when you drop that package down to me, I
- 7:40Speaker 2: can go on and get it. You feel me. You
- 7:43Speaker 2: got to pray. You got to stay still. You gotta
- 7:46Speaker 2: fight to stay positive. You gotta remember the plan. You
- 7:49Speaker 2: got to go over the goals. Come on, man, God
- 7:51Speaker 2: and brought you too far, Come on, pick yourself up today.
