• 0:07
  Speaker 1: listening to The Voice. Come on. Come on, y'all. Dig
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: me now.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: One and only Steve Harvey. Got a radio show. Man,
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: is God good to me. Unbelievable.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he is.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: And I can only attribute it to one thing. It's
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: just been a turnaround in my life.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: It's been me.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Finally make a decision to see what all God has
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: for me, but at the same time trying to be
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: more God want me to be instead of more what
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: I want to be. That's the trade-off. You know, you
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: got to do something now. You know, you want God's blessings.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: You got to be willing to do something on his behalf.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying I got it right right now because
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: I'm just being real with you.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: I don't have it all together by any stretch of
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: the imagination. I'm trying to get better in several areas.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: I'm praying about it. I'm working on it, but you know,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: it's a process and I've, I've, I've, I've grown to
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: accept the process, but I'm improving in a lot of
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: areas from day to day. But I'll tell you what, man,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: my success, all this going on with me, I can
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: only attribute to this turnaround. And the turnaround was simple.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: I turned around and started looking at God. That was
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: the simple move, man. I just turned around and started
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: looking at him and I was going, okay, I get
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: it now. You created me. You're the creator. You have
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: a purpose for me. I understand that now. Now, let
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: me just walk in that purpose and let me get
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: to doing that purpose. Now, my purpose and your purpose
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: and their purpose and anybody's perfect purpose could be different.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: And the way you go about the purpose can be different.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: And that's the part that I've really grown up to.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: I've opened up my mind to understanding that everybody's different.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Nobody's quite the same. And that is not my right
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: or position to judge, but to be of a forgiving
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: spirit and understand and forgive those as I ask God
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: to forgive me.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: See, that's the key. That's the key, y'all.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: So when you're out here and you're stuck on this unforgiveness,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: understand in the Lord's prayer, there's a segment that says,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: against us. There's another version that says, forgive us our
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: debts as we forgive our debtors. It's two different versions.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: But either one, it means the exact same thing. It
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: means simply this, that you are asking God to forgive
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: yours like you forgive others. Forgive us our trespasses. as
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: we forgive those who trespass against us. When I cross
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: the line with you, God, handle me the way I
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: handle people when they cross the line with me. You
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: feel what I'm saying to you. See, you understand that?
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: That's the breakdown of it. Best way I can give
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: it to you. Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: those who trespass against us. Forgive me, God, for stepping
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: over the line like I forgive those that step over
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: the line on me. That's the hard part, man. That's
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: the part, man, I've really been working on. I've been
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: really trying to get that together. And so I've learned
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: forgiveness a lot better over the past five years than
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: I have before.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: And it's paid off. I can't tell you how it's
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: paid off.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: Because now God's mercy and grace is all over me
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: because I've learned to become more graceful. Now, I ain't
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: graceful like him. I ain't merciful like him. But I've
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: learned to become more, more graceful, more merciful. Because, man,
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: I can't live my life like that. I just got
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: sick of me, man. You mad at me, now I'm
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: mad at you. You hating on me, now I'm going
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: to hate on you. I ain't got time for that, man.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Look here, you got somewhere to go. Hate take up time.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: It's time consuming, hating. trying to seek revenge. It's time consuming.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Take up way too much of your time to seek
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: revenge when vengeance ain't really yours. That's another one. Vengeance
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: is mine. Say if the Lord, it ain't yours. So
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: now when you go to seek it, to take it out,
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: guess what you're doing? You're doing something now, man. Now
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: you off into area that you got no business being in.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: And instead of steady climbing your ladder, like you're supposed to,
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: you didn't take out time for vengeance.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: To hate. I'm a hater. I'm going to be a blogger.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: I'm a blog about so-and-so.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: When you're blogging about somebody, and most of these people
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: you don't even know, when you're blogging about somebody.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: What you doing? What you hating?
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: It takes time to hate, man. I just decided, man,
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I got to take all my time. And instead of
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: doing time and being active, I got to be proactive. See,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: some people get that confused being active and being proactive.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Pro is positive. Pro means to move forward.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: You know, If you put pro in front of most words,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: it's a positive influence. You know, there's the pros and
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: the cons. The pros is the good side. The cons
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: is what can go wrong, the bad side. You know,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: if you're active, that's one thing, but if you're proactive,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: you're going forward in a positive direction. When you become
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: a pro, that means you're the best of the best
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: at whatever it is you've chosen to be.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: I'm a pro. So somehow, and I'm no....
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: English teacher, grammatical guy, the word pro a lot of
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: times when you put it in front of something means positiveness.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: So now a lot of people think that if you
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: just act, if something ought to happen, well, I'm doing something.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: And that's what happens, man.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: We just find ourselves doing a lot of busy work
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: that really ain't about nothing.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: It ain't going nowhere.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: It ain't got no direction or no purpose because we
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: haven't tried to find out the direction or purpose. So
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: you wake up and you and you and your wheels
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: are spinning. You're a hamster on a treadmill. You're running
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: real fast, but you're just going in the same spot.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: You understand? That's because you're just out here being active
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: instead of proactive. Why don't you get God in your life?
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Why don't you turn and face your creator and find
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: out how to become more proactive so you can do
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: things to move yourself forward, how you can get your
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: life off the ground and get off the treadmill and
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: really get it rolling in the direction that it need
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: to be going, man. I'm telling you, God can make
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: that change for you if he see you making the
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: change for him. See, the whole key, man, the whole
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: key is you got to be willing to do something.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: You got to give God something to bless. Bless me, God.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: And then you go sit on your couch and you
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: ain't trying. OK, bless me, God, with what? What are
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: you working with? He can't have the people hire you
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: if you ain't put the app in.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Come on, man.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: The blessing comes when you make a proactive step, when
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: you try to do something on the positive side. Look, man,
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: I'm going to quit messing around with all these people.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: I'm going to start going home. I'm going to leave
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: these women alone out here. You got to say, all right, man,
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I ain't going over there tonight. I just ain't going

  Speaker 2: help me stop seeing all these women. But you steady
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: going over there, calling them, setting up stuff. Well, can't
