  Speaker 1: morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on dig
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Man o man, oh man. Wow. I think about all
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: the things God has done for me is overwhelming at times.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: And I want everybody to have that feeling and to
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: sharing that feeling of completion and satisfaction. And the only
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: reason I got this, and it's the thousandth time I've
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: said it, is because I formed a relationship with my creator. Period.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: That's it. That's that's it. I can't tell you as
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: anything else else. You know, I've always had a strong
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: work ethic. My father put that in me. My father's
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: conversation with me growing up was always constantly about work hard,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: don't be lazy, be a man, do what you say
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: you're gonna do. YadA YadA, YadA, YadA YadA. Man. I
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: was so out of my father at times. I was going, Man,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: what is with this dude? Right here? Man, every time
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: we have a conversation, it's got to be about work.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: It's got to be about, you know, man, doing your best,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: trying hard, you know, working, being honest, do what you
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: say you're gonna do. But that was his mission. I
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: can't tell you how much I appreciate that now. I
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: can't even I can't even put it into words when
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I think about my old man and what he was
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: to me, and I just, man, I'm so grateful for
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: that balance I had in my life. And then my
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: father was a fighter. He fought on the weekends. You know.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: My father used to come home with his clothes toe
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: off of him. He put a fresh shirt on, and
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: he go back. My mom used to talk about my
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: father fighting all the time, lick, while you're always fighting.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: You know a little bit of that rubbed off on
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: me too. You know that that kind of got into me.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: And I didn't understand that either. But then on the
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: same turn, my mother was a Sunday school teacher for
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: forty years, so her conversation was never about fighting or anything.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: It was all about love and understanding and doing another
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: that you would have to do unto you. My mom
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: was a Sunday school teacher, so I learned about faith.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I had to go to Sunday school, prayer meeting, Bible study,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: young people meeting, choir rehearsal. You know, I was a
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: church man so much I was actually looking as that's
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: got to be an alternative to this, you know, I
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: want you know, and I was a little kid even
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: I was thinking at one point maybe I ought to
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: look in al because there's got to be something cooler
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: than this going on every day. It had got that
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: crazy for me. But the balance between those two people
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: created who I am today. And I want you to
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: understand that the things that you are in your past
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: have helped create who you are today. If you view
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: it the right way, everything that has happened to you
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: in your past has happened to you for reason, and
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: it's usually for the good if you view it that way.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: But if you, on the other hand, are a type
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: of person who can't move forward because you are allowing
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: your past to stop you from having your future, then you,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: my friend, are doing a disservice to your life. You
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: are not honoring God's blessings. You are not taking advantage
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: of the gain, knowledge, wisdom, and experience of your life. Example,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: if you are a woman and you are always talking
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: about a former relationship what he did to me. If
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: he had not did this to me, I wouldn't be
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: in this place today. I thought I had a man. Now,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: I ain't got no man ahllah lah lah la lah.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: You know he came along and I was doing just swell.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: He just came in and he just lied to me.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: He lied to me, nod. He did this to me.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Then he cheated, then he left. All of that that
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: you're saying can very well be true. Have you thought
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: that maybe maybe somewhere in God's infinite wisdom, that he
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: knew that you had made a mistake in picking him anyway?
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Maybe he knew you had made a mistake in saying
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: yes or I do to him anyway, or come on,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: move in? And so what he did was based on
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: your decision now to say yes, I do, or come on,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: let's move in together. That was your decision. You ain't
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: go to him about this one. You made this decision
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: based on that decision, and all the negative things that
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: started happening. He allowed you to get away from it.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Now how you got away from it, it's always not
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: the choice of ours. See, you stuck on the fact
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: that he left, that he walked out. But let me
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: share this with you. When he was there, how good
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: was he to you? How good was he for you? See,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: you got to stare at you got to look at
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the blessing. The blessing is. Now you are on your own.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Now you walk in your house, ain't nobody in there
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: with a disruptive spirit. Now you go home. You could
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: take your clothes off, walk around like you want to.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Now you go home, you can sit down and look
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: at TV or catch your breath if you want to.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Your kids don't have to see y'all arguing all the time.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Have you looked at the blessing in it? But now
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: if you gonna keep looking at the negative, then guess what.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Now you can't move forward because you keep allowing your
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: past to keep you from moving forward. If God has
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: brought you through it, why don't you move on from it? Look,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: you got through it. He gone, he ain't coming back.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: He got somebody else. So you gonna sit there and
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: just keep tripping becauts He gone and he got somebody else. Hey,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: pick yourself up. Thank God for the blessing. It didn't
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: feel like a blessing. Why you was going through it
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: and all the pain of him leaving and the divorce
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: and all that messed you up? Got it? When you
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: get through it all of that, you ain't the first
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: one being left You ain't the first one being divorced.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: You ain't the first one been in a bad relationship.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Pick yourself up, thank God for the blessing, and move
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: forward in your life, because maybe when you quit complaining,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: maybe you'll find out that God has something in store
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: for you that he wont you to have, but he
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: can't give it to you if you ain't grateful. So
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: God gives you a blessing, but because you don't see
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: it as a blessing, you ain't grateful for it. Now,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: guess what, You steady asking God to do something for you,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: but you ain't thanking him for what he's done for you,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: but you steady wanting him to do more. How does
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: that work? How does that work? Man? That he should
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: keep on giving you things when you ain't even working
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: with the stuff he didne gave you. And I don't know.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: And I'm just using that one example. That could go
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: for me and too, vice versa, and so on and
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: so forth. I'm just using that as an example. Now,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: why I laid on that one so long? You have
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to take that over God, that's all just reat. I
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: ain't pointing fingers at nobody in nothing, because I've been
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: guilty on both sides of the coin. Who am I,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: But I'm just sharing with you what I had to do.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: I had to learn to stop allowing my past to
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: interfere with my future. The Steve Harvey Morning Show
