- 0:04Speaker 1: Come on, uh huh, I sure will.
- 0:12Speaker 2: Good morning everybody.
- 0:13Speaker 1: You are listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now,
- 0:17Speaker 1: one and only Steve Harvey got.
- 0:18Speaker 2: A radio show man.
- 0:21Speaker 1: What an amazing blessing. God has given me, my health,
- 0:27Speaker 1: my dreams, all of it. God gave it to me.
- 0:31Speaker 1: I accept it. I work hard, but man, oh man,
- 0:35Speaker 1: oh man, I work hard. It's something that He gave
- 0:38Speaker 1: me a gift. And that's what I want to talk
- 0:41Speaker 1: to you about today. Because God has gifted everyone, so
- 0:45Speaker 1: I can't help but believe it. You are gifted in
- 0:48Speaker 1: some way. Something about you is specially and unique. That
- 0:53Speaker 1: doesn't mean you're the only one that can sing, or
- 0:56Speaker 1: you're the only one that can write. Are you the
- 0:58Speaker 1: only one that can draw, you the only one that
- 1:00Speaker 1: can decorate, Or you're the only one that can network,
- 1:03Speaker 1: or you're the only one that that's not what it means.
- 1:06Speaker 1: Or you have a great scientific mind, or you can
- 1:08Speaker 1: figure things out, or you're good and problem solving. You're
- 1:10Speaker 1: not the only one, but you are a unique individual.
- 1:13Speaker 1: Nobody will travel the exact path that you on. Nobody
- 1:16Speaker 1: will have everything happen in a series of circumstances in
- 1:21Speaker 1: the order that you're going to have it happen to you.
- 1:24Speaker 1: That's what I mean when I say that you are unique.
- 1:27Speaker 1: But now because you are gifted, you know you have
- 1:31Speaker 1: something you have to do. You know, there's a scripture.
- 1:34Speaker 1: It's in Proverbs, Proverbs eighteen and sixteen. I've been trying
- 1:38Speaker 1: to be a little bit better at that for you, you know.
- 1:40Speaker 1: So when I have an idea and I know where
- 1:43Speaker 1: it is, I have somebody look the scripture up from
- 1:45Speaker 1: it handed to me. So it's in Proverbs eighteen sixteen.
- 1:49Speaker 1: And this is the layman's term of it. It says
- 1:52Speaker 1: a man's gift make room for him and brings him
- 1:56Speaker 1: before a great man. It is your gift that will
- 2:00Speaker 1: make room for you. Now my interpretation of this is this.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Now I could be wrong. Please go to your local church, center, god, temple, mosque,
- 2:08Speaker 1: whatever you do, and go get clarification. But what my
- 2:12Speaker 1: gift has done in making room for me is I've
- 2:15Speaker 1: taken it almost in the literal sense. My gift has
- 2:18Speaker 1: actually made room for me. It has clear paths for me.
- 2:22Speaker 1: My gift has opened up doors for me. That's what
- 2:25Speaker 1: I take it as. It'll make room for you. My
- 2:28Speaker 1: gift has has broadened my ability to travel. My gift
- 2:32Speaker 1: has opened my eyes to fashion. My gift has caused
- 2:37Speaker 1: me to be able to provide for my family. My
- 2:41Speaker 1: gift has caused me to be able to reach more people.
- 2:46Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying in terms of it will make
- 2:48Speaker 1: room for you. That it may be another interpretation. I'm
- 2:51Speaker 1: just telling you how I took it, that it has
- 2:53Speaker 1: worked out pretty good for me to that understanding. But
- 2:55Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Bishop Jakes, Joel Osteen, Kenneth Ohma, God,
- 3:00Speaker 1: Glenn Staples, Bishop Glenn's Table, these guys give you much
- 3:03Speaker 1: better understanding of it. I'm just giving it to you.
- 3:06Speaker 1: You know where I know how sold. I don't know.
- 3:08Speaker 1: I just like to keep it right there. But and
- 3:11Speaker 1: then it says that it brings you before great men.
- 3:15Speaker 1: I mean, you know it's gonna take you places. It's
- 3:18Speaker 1: gonna take you places you never thought of going. You're
- 3:21Speaker 1: gonna meet people because of your gift. I told my son,
- 3:24Speaker 1: who two of them are good photographers. You'll be taking
- 3:27Speaker 1: pictures of great men. And then I mess with them.
- 3:30Speaker 1: You already take the pictures, say your daddy, you know
- 3:31Speaker 1: I'm messing with them like that. But that's just me
- 3:33Speaker 1: and them just kicking it. But you know, but one day,
- 3:36Speaker 1: who knows, you could be shooting the president. You know,
- 3:38Speaker 1: you could be shooting some foreign dignitaries. You know, you
- 3:42Speaker 1: could be shooting great sport events. You know, you never
- 3:44Speaker 1: know where it could take you. But that's your gift.
- 3:47Speaker 1: What you got to do is you got to get to.
- 3:49Speaker 2: Move and though. See, you can't have your gift and
- 3:51Speaker 2: not do nothing with it. See. You know what that
- 3:53Speaker 2: reminds me of.
- 3:55Speaker 1: It's something that my father used to say, get up
- 3:59Speaker 1: off your butt because you're sitting on a gold mine.
- 4:02Speaker 2: He say that all the time.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Boy, get up off your butt and move it, because
- 4:07Speaker 1: you sitting on a gold mine. I never really quite
- 4:09Speaker 1: got that when I was little, but now that I'm
- 4:11Speaker 1: an adult, I got it full well. See, a lot
- 4:14Speaker 1: of you are sitting You're sitting on a talent or
- 4:17Speaker 1: a gift that you have. You're sitting on an ability.
- 4:20Speaker 1: I don't care if it's making cakes or pies. That's
- 4:23Speaker 1: a gift, man, that's a talent. I don't care if
- 4:26Speaker 1: it's the ability to do hell, that's a gift man.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Half of you are gifted. A lot of us are
- 4:31Speaker 1: gifted and we're sitting on it looking at other people
- 4:35Speaker 1: wondering what can I do to make it? You already
- 4:37Speaker 1: got something to make it with. If you would just
- 4:40Speaker 1: get up off your behind, man, quit sitting on that
- 4:43Speaker 1: gold mine. Some of you are tech savvy, just a
- 4:47Speaker 1: whiz is when it comes to engineering and putting stuff
- 4:50Speaker 1: together and cables and wires and computers and stuff. And
- 4:54Speaker 1: now you steady looking around trying to figure out, Man,
- 4:56Speaker 1: wonder what I can go do? How about you go
- 4:59Speaker 1: do that? You know it ain't that hard, man, if
- 5:02Speaker 1: you would just take note of what God has given
- 5:06Speaker 1: you already.
- 5:07Speaker 2: He has given you a gift already. He has already
- 5:10Speaker 2: given you a talent.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Now the fact that you ain't using it and you
- 5:13Speaker 1: sitting on your tail somewhere now, who fathers what we're
- 5:18Speaker 1: talking about? What you're blaming God for that?
- 5:23Speaker 2: Man?
- 5:23Speaker 1: I tell you what, I sit around people all the
- 5:26Speaker 1: time who are gifted, and I'm looking at their gifts,
- 5:30Speaker 1: and they steady complaining about what they don't have, but
- 5:33Speaker 1: will not get up off there behind and use the
- 5:37Speaker 1: gifts that God gave them.
- 5:39Speaker 2: And it's frustrating.
- 5:40Speaker 1: It's gotta be frustrating for you if you doing it
- 5:44Speaker 1: because it's frustrating.
- 5:45Speaker 2: For me when I see it.
- 5:46Speaker 1: So when these people come to me and ask me
- 5:48Speaker 1: for help, I just keep going the same.
- 5:50Speaker 2: Thing over and over. Help yourself, man, do for you,
- 5:54Speaker 2: use your gift.

- 6:26Speaker 1: no shortcut. Somebody told me this the other day.
- 6:28Speaker 2: Man.
- 6:29Speaker 1: The road to success is always under construction. It ain't paved.
- 6:35Speaker 1: It's got detour signs on it. It's got slow men working.
- 6:40Speaker 1: Sometime they flip the stop sign. You gotta sit there
- 6:43Speaker 1: and wait. Sometime they got slow. That's traffic there's accidents,
